The Dealer Margin for fuel retailers will increase slightly by 2 cents per litre, from 236 cents to 238 cents per litre, effective 4 March 2026.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">According to the Ministry, international shipping and freight costs declined in February due to easing geopolitical tensions and improved tanker availability, while crude oil prices rose amid tightening global supply and strong demand. The Namibia Dollar also strengthened slightly against the US Dollar during the review period.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Taking these factors into account, the Ministry resolved to maintain current pump prices while continuing to monitor international oil market developments to safeguard domestic price stability.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Picture for illustrative purposes only.
