Published Jul 18, 2026, 7:52 AM ASTvia Primera Hora

Why this matters: For Puerto Rican households and businesses, the current gasoline prices affect daily transportation costs and the overall cost of living on the island.

The Department of Consumer Affairs (DACO) has released an update on gasoline prices in Puerto Rico, amid fluctuations in fuel costs on the island. As of July 18, regular gasoline prices are expected to range between $1.05 and $1.10 per liter, premium between $1.19 and $1.27, and diesel between $1.23 and $1.32.

The prices have increased due to the conflict in the Middle East and disruptions in oil flow through the Strait of Hormuz, a key route for global supply.
