From 20 March 2026, Cambodia will reduce the VAT rate on gasoline and diesel from 10% to 4%, with the government absorbing the remaining 6% to subsidise fuel consumption. The temporary measure applies to both B2B and B2C sales and requires updates to invoicing and e‑filing systems. The change is part of a broader effort to manage energy‑driven inflation without altering the overall VAT framework.
