Fuel price caps in Croatia and Slovenia
Both governments set a maximum price for standard petrol and diesel. The cap applies off the motorway only, so where you fill up matters more than which brand you pick.
Croatia
- The government sets maximum prices for standard petrol (Eurosuper 95) and standard diesel (Eurodizel).
- The caps apply at stations off the motorway. Motorway stations set their own prices.
- New caps are decided on Mondays and apply from Tuesday.
Slovenia
- The government sets maximum prices for 95-octane petrol and diesel at stations off the motorway.
- Motorway stations, premium fuels (98 and 100 octane), LPG and CNG have free prices.
- The caps are reset regularly by government decision.
What it means for filling up
- Off the motorway, most stations charge exactly the cap. There is little to gain from driving around to compare them: take the nearest one.
- Motorway stations are usually dearer. For a full tank, leaving the motorway for a station in the next town is usually worth it.
- Premium fuels are not capped, so their prices differ from station to station as elsewhere.
- A few stations charge less than the cap. Those are the real bargains.
In the GoTank app
GoTank reads the cap from the prices around you. Stations at the cap are marked "Government cap" in blue, stations below it stay green, and stations above it, typically on the motorway, are marked as not capped. In Croatia the app also shows the day the next caps apply.
