Retail gas prices remain unchanged, gasoline and oil price adjustment period moved to May 5

(DN) - Since the beginning of May 2025, domestic retail gas prices have remained stable compared to the previous month. The reason is that world suppliers announced the average fuel price at 600 USD/ton, down 10 USD/ton compared to April 2025, but due to the impact of the USD exchange rate, domestic gas prices remained unchanged in May 2025.

This is the second consecutive time that domestic retail gas prices have remained unchanged. Currently, the prices of common gas types range from 466,000 to 489,000 VND/12kg cylinder depending on the brand. Since the beginning of 2025, domestic retail gas prices have decreased twice (January and March), increased once (February), and remained unchanged twice (April and May).

Meanwhile, the Department of Domestic Market Management and Development ( Ministry of Industry and Trade ) has announced an adjustment to the gasoline price management schedule when the adjustment cycle according to regulations of 7 days/time falls on the holidays of April 30 and May 1.
