Most fuel is imported from India and local pump prices in Bhutan are directly linked to the India import price. A change in the Indian fuel price level usually induces the same changes in Bhutan with a delay of a couple of days (see →App. A3).

Fuel imports and the downstream fuel market in Bhutan are supervised by the Department of Trade (http://www.trade.gov.bt/). However, no information regarding fuel prices is available on their website as of May 2011.

Transportation charges of Nu 3.18 a kilolitre for every round trip kilometre in hilly areas and Nu 2.46 a kilolitre for a round trip kilometre in plain areas are included in the price.
