Fuel Taxation

Fuel taxation is the government’s way of collecting revenue from the sale of fuel, like gasoline and diesel. When you purchase fuel, a tax is added to the price, which helps fund public infrastructure such as roads, bridges, and transportation projects. These taxes can be set per gallon or liter, and sometimes include environmental fees to encourage cleaner energy use. The goal is to generate funds for maintenance and development of transportation systems while also influencing consumer behavior and vehicle choices.
