Diesel price tomorrow

The maximum price of diesel for tomorrow: the official tariff if published, otherwise an estimate with its measured error.

The official maximum price of diesel B7 for tomorrow, Sunday 1 November 2026, has already been published: €2.452 a litre, unchanged from today (€2.452). The FPS Economy sets this ceiling under the programme agreement between the Belgian State and the Energia federation, from international quotations that are paid for and not published: nobody can therefore recompute tomorrow’s official tariff in advance. What can be measured is the rhythm of changes. Over a year the diesel tariff changed on 68 days out of 364, most often on a Wednesday (16 times). Taking the last tariff as the estimate for the next day was off by 1.2 c a litre on average over 52 weeks and 1.2 c over the last 4, and was right to within a cent on 82 % of days. With tomorrow’s tariff unchanged, it makes no difference which day you fill up.

Official tariff or estimate: what the “tomorrow” card says

At the time of this update, tomorrow’s official tariff is out: the tool’s card shows it as published, with no estimate. A tariff published the day before is a fact: it applies all of the next day in every station in the country, which may sell below it but not above. The estimate is only a guide. The programme agreement, whose technical annex dates from 9 October 2006, ties the maximum price to international diesel quotations that this site cannot read. Rather than invent a quotation, the estimate takes the last published tariff and frames it with the moves actually seen on the same weekday.

Diesel’s rhythm, day by day

Diesel price changes do not land at random in the week. The table counts, for each day, how many times a new maximum price took effect on that day over the last 365 days, and in which direction.

Diesel B7, last 365 days: a change counts on the day the new maximum price applies.

Over the whole year diesel saw 40 rises and 28 cuts. On any given day the chance of a new tariff is therefore fairly low: 19 % of days on average. That is why an estimator as simple as “tomorrow like today” is only slightly off most of the time, and well off on the rare days when the price jumps.

For high-mileage drivers: choosing the day to fill up

With tomorrow’s tariff unchanged, it makes no difference which day you fill up. For a van or a fleet the difference multiplies by the number of fill-ups in the week; the tool works it out on the volume you enter. Today’s price, B10 and the trend over a year are on the diesel price page, and the same calculation for petrol on petrol price tomorrow.

Prices come from the daily series of the official tariff that Statbel publishes on be.STAT, under the open CC BY 4.0 licence. The rules of the programme agreement are summarised by the Social Heating Fund and the FPS Economy. How the estimate and its error are calculated is set out on the method page.

Frequently asked questions

From when is tomorrow’s diesel price known?

As soon as the FPS Economy publishes the new official tariff, the day before it takes effect, and Statbel adds it to its be.STAT series. This page reads that series several times a day: once tomorrow appears in it, the “tomorrow” card shows the official tariff; before that, it shows an estimate labelled as such.

On which days of the week does the diesel price change?

Over the last twelve months a new diesel tariff most often took effect on a Wednesday, 16 times out of 52. No change took effect on a Monday over the period. The table on this page covers all seven days, with the number of rises and cuts.

How reliable is the estimate of tomorrow’s diesel price?

It is measured, not promised. Over the last 52 weeks, taking the last published tariff was off the real next-day tariff by 1.2 c a litre on average, and stayed within a cent on 82 % of days. On days when a new tariff lands the error is larger, which is why the range shown rests on the real moves seen on the same weekday.

Does tomorrow’s tariff also apply to diesel B10?

B10 has its own maximum price, published at the same time as B7’s. The two usually move on the same days, but not necessarily by the same amount. The tool lets you switch between them: today B10 is capped at €2.443 and B7 at €2.452. Check the label by the filler flap that your engine accepts B10.

Can a station charge tomorrow’s price this evening?

Not if it is higher. The maximum that applies is the one for the day of sale: until the new tariff is in force, the station is bound by today’s. It may lower its prices whenever it likes, because the maximum is a ceiling, not a set price. The dated receipt is what counts if there is a dispute.
