Why fuel prices change in Colombia
Fuel prices in Colombia move with global Brent and WTI benchmarks, but local policy determines how quickly global changes pass through to pump rates.
Colombia remains below many peers in USD terms but domestic policy still drives periodic adjustments. Because fuel is part of transport and logistics cost, retail inflation often follows large petrol or diesel moves.
Current model: Official monthly updates. Authority: Ministry of Mines and Energy. This is why neighboring countries can post very different prices even on the same day.
