The Iranian government has announced a significant shift in fuel pricing, targeting residents who consume more than 110 liters of fuel per month. Under the new policy, any consumption exceeding this threshold will be charged at a rate of 100,000 riyals per liter, effectively doubling the cost for high-usage consumers.

This move comes as the latest in a series of efforts by the state to regulate energy consumption across the country. Government officials have publicly requested that citizens limit their fuel intake, framing the policy as a necessary step to manage national energy resources. While the government emphasizes the need for conservation, the policy places a direct financial burden on those who rely on higher volumes of fuel for their daily activities or livelihoods. The announcement has drawn attention to the ongoing economic challenges faced by the Iranian public, particularly regarding the cost of living and energy affordability. There is no indication at this time that the government intends to offer subsidies or exemptions for those who exceed the 110-liter limit, suggesting a firm commitment to the new pricing tier.
