Joint Decision A. 1224/2026, signed by the Ministry of National Economy and Finance, the Ministry of Rural Development and Food and AADE, brings the new digital myDiesel application into operation from 1 November 2026. Through the application, eligible farmers will be able to buy diesel fuel with Special Consumption Tax (SCT) and the corresponding VAT waived at the pump.
The new digital process replaces the existing system for refunding SCT on agricultural diesel and significantly streamlines the process for producers. Publicly accessible fuel stations must register on the application to supply fuel to eligible farmers with the tax exemption. The platform will be available through the myAADE digital portal from 22 October 2026, and will also be made available through an application for mobile devices and tablets in the coming days.
To use the application, fuel stations must first update their details in the Public-Use Fuel Stations Register. AADE has sent an information notice to about 450 stations whose records were incomplete, and almost 50% of them have already made the necessary corrections.
At the same time, SCT refunds to fuel stations are processed automatically at least every Monday and Thursday, after sales documents have been verified through the myDATA or eSend information systems. No further action is required from station operators.
Finally, following a recommendation from AADE, the Ministry of National Economy and Finance has put a provision out for public consultation and is submitting it for a vote. The provision provides for the refund to station operators of the SCT and corresponding VAT, and for these amounts to be protected from set-off and seizure.
