MINSK, Nov. 30 (Xinhua) -- Belarus will decrease export duties on oil and petroleum products, which are exported outside the Eurasian Economic Union (EAEU) starting from Dec. 1.
The export duty on crude oil will decrease from 152 U.S. dollars to 135.1 dollars per ton, while the duty for straight-run gasoline will fall from 83.6 dollars to 74.3 dollars per ton, the government said in a statement on Friday.
Export duty on commercial gasoline will decrease from 45.6 dollars to 40,5 dollars per ton. The same rate will be applied to diesel fuel, benzene, toluene, xylene, lubricants and other oils.
This marks a major fall in export duties on crude oil and several oil derivatives following their revision upward on Nov. 1.
