Belarus raises export duties on liquefied gases from 17.4 to 61.5 dollars per tonne

The Belarusian government has significantly increased export duties on liquefied hydrocarbon gases. The relevant resolution was signed by Prime Minister Alyaksandr Turchyn, the press service of the Council of Ministers reported. The new rates apply to relations that arose from 1 November 2026.

Details were published in the Telegram channel "Government of Belarus"; the government's online resource is government.by.

The rate on liquefied hydrocarbon gases has been raised from 17.4 to 61.5 dollars per tonne. The duty on ethane, butane and isobutane rose from 15.6 to 55.3 dollars per tonne.

On 14 April the government abolished the zero rate that had been in effect for 10 months and set tariffs at 5.2 and 4.6 dollars per tonne.

In May 2026 the Council of Ministers adopted a resolution raising duties on liquefied gases, and in July 2026, as non-state Belarusian outlets reported, it lowered them to 69.5 dollars per tonne.
