According to the Government’s Resolution No. 25/2026/NQ-CP, issued on April 30, the validity of  Decree No. 72/2026/ND-CP, which reduces preferential import tariffs  to 0% on several fuel products and inputs for fuel production, will be extended  until the end of June 30 this year.

Decree No. 72/2026/ND-CP, issued on March 9, 2026, was initially set to be applied until April 30, 2026.

Accordingly, preferential import duty rates of 0% will continue to be applicable  to certain fuel production inputs under HS codes 2710.19.20 (partly refined crude oil), 2710.19.89 (other medium oils and preparations), and 2711.19.00 (other categories).

Resolution No. 25/2026/NQ-CP will take effect from May 1 through June 30. From July 1, preferential import duty rates for fuel products and production inputs will revert to the provisions stipulated in Decree No. 26/2023/ND-CP and its amendments.

During the validity of the resolution, in case of discrepancies between its provisions and those of Decree No. 26/2023/ND-CP or related amending decrees, the provisions of Resolution No. 25/2026/NQ-CP shall prevail.

The Ministry of Finance said that the extension of Decree No. 72/2026/ND-CP aims to help stabilize the domestic fuel market and ensure national energy security amid ongoing global uncertainties, while supporting  macroeconomic stability and contributing to economic growth targets.
