It’s been a few weeks since the 10-cent discount on fuel expired, much to the chagrin of motorists. And it is not for nothing that the price of fuel has risen sharply since the beginning of last year. The war in Ukraine obviously had something to do with it, as did the sanctions against Russia and, in particular, the embargo, which should raise prices at the pump even more. Taxation implemented by the government also plays a role, while taxes represent approx 60% of the price per liter. Suffice it to say that the discount was very popular among drivers at the time.
I am introducing a bill aimed at reducing gasoline taxes in the face of record high fuel prices and taxing oil company dividends.
A few days before the big holidays, this is an important topic for the French. pic.twitter.com/84UlSqaEBM

What are the conditions?
But if it was finally canceled on December 31, the government decided to introduce a new aid. Then it takes the form of compensation in the amount of 100 euros, which is paid once to the claimant’s account. But to be eligible for participation, several conditions must be met. First of all, being an employee and it is absolutely necessary to use your car every day to get to work. You must also declare a basic taxable income is less than 14,700 euros annually in 2021. The unemployed are excluded from this system, as the government reminds.
More than a few days
Be careful, because you only have until next February 28 ask for your help if you are eligible. After that date you will no longer be eligible. According to the latest government figures, one in two French people who can claim it have not yet taken the necessary steps. Do not hesitate to check if you can use this to make your request on the tax website as soon as possible!
The French are punished by supply interruptions at service stations.
Thus, the government continues the discount of 30 centimes/l at gas stations until mid-November.@TotalEnergies also extends its discount of 20 centimes/l for the same period. pic.twitter.com/u7EdYWGliB
