One-time aid proposal for low-income workers and families between October and December 2026. A monthly contribution is also under consideration.
The government is considering the introduction of a €100 fuel bonus, primarily aimed at workers and families with lower incomes. The aid, still in the proposal stage, would be usable for the purchase of gasoline, diesel, or other fuels between October and December 2026.
At the moment, the economic requirements to access the subsidy have not been defined, nor have the application procedures or the disbursement method. Therefore, it is not yet possible to submit any applications. The government is also examining a second option: converting the aid into a monthly bonus of a smaller amount, still reserved for the most vulnerable income brackets.
The final decision between the one-time payment and the monthly payment will depend on the available resources and the choices made in the coming weeks. Only the approval of an official measure will definitively establish beneficiaries, amount, income thresholds, and the procedure to follow.
The proposal arises as the Government's response to the high cost of fuel, which is weighing on the budgets of workers and families. The increase in gasoline and diesel prices has prompted the executive branch to study targeted economic support measures to alleviate this expense.
The idea is for a specific public intervention, yet to be established, which would be distinctly different from the fuel vouchers that employers can provide within the framework of corporate welfare. The latter, in fact, fall under the regulations for fringe benefits (Article 51 of Presidential Decree No. 917 of 1986) and are granted directly by the company, within limits set by tax legislation.
The path to reaching the final measure is still underway. The two options on the table—a one-time bonus or monthly assistance—must be calibrated based on available financial resources. The current situation is therefore one of waiting: to know the definitive rules, potential beneficiaries will have to await the issuance of an official text that transforms the hypothesis into a concrete provision.
