Until end-2018, a transportation-energy-environment tax continues to be levied on gasoline (₩475 per litre) and diesel oil (₩340 per litre), instead of the individual consumption tax (Section 3.4.1.1). As of 2016, flexible transportation-energy-environment tax rates were applied to gasoline and diesel oil within a 30% range of the statutory tax rates, i.e. ₩529 per litre and ₩375 per litre, respectively. Conditional exemptions apply to petrol and diesel used in the manufacture of medical goods, fertilizers and petro chemicals, vehicles for disabled persons or rental usage.
