The Serbian Government has extended its temporary restrictions on the export of crude oil and petroleum products, prolonging the measure until 31 July. The decision, adopted at the latest government session, replaces the previous deadline of 2 July and keeps the export controls in place for an additional month.
Authorities stated that the extension reflects continued uncertainty in global energy markets, as well as the need to safeguard domestic fuel availability. They pointed to ongoing disruptions in international oil supply chains and market volatility as key risks that could affect the stability of petroleum product supplies.
The Government emphasized that the restrictions are designed to ensure adequate fuel stocks for the domestic market, while also reducing the risk of shortages for households, industry, and transport during a period of elevated price and supply fluctuations.
By maintaining the export limitations, policymakers aim to reinforce energy security and stabilize internal supply conditions until international market dynamics become more predictable.
