Honduras's Energy Ministry announced new fuel prices effective July 20, with kerosene and diesel rising by about L1.29–L1.37 per gallon while vehicle LPG falls slightly and domestic LPG and regular gasoline stay frozen under temporary subsidies.

The Honduran fuel distributors' association says price reductions take longer to reach consumers than increases because of volatile global markets, summer demand surges abroad, and geopolitical uncertainty around Middle Eastern shipping routes.

Honduras's energy ministry announced a significant reduction in petroleum product prices effective Monday, June 29, continuing a downward trend in fuel costs.

Honduras imported 6.97 million barrels of fuel in the first three months of 2026, worth $608.2 million, a 5.8% increase from the same period last year, driven by higher demand for diesel and gasoline for vehicles and thermal power generation.

Honduras will see another round of cuts to gasoline, diesel, and kerosene prices starting Monday, marking three straight weeks of fuel-cost declines, with officials suggesting further drops may follow if international market trends persist.
