Frequently asked questions

Is fuel cheaper in Croatia or Serbia?

Neither — petrol 95 costs effectively the same on both sides this week, €1.72 per litre in Croatia against €1.72 in Serbia. That is under half a cent a litre, so there is no saving to be had by crossing for fuel alone.

Is it worth crossing the border to fill up?

Not for petrol. The two sides are within half a cent a litre of each other, which is under €0.25 on a 50-litre tank — less than the fuel a short detour would burn getting there.

How current are these prices?

Both sides are 2026-08-31 national averages including all duties and taxes — European Commission, DG Energy — Weekly Oil Bulletin for Croatia and OpenVan.camp — European fuel price aggregation for Serbia. Individual stations vary around the average, and forecourts right at a border crossing routinely price above it precisely because they can.
