The Allan Labor Government has confirmed strong compliance from fuel retailers across [Victoria](https://www.carexplore.com.au/tag/victoria/) following the introduction of mandatory fuel price reporting regulations. The initiative aims to improve transparency and help motorists save on fuel by making real-time pricing available to the public.

## Retailer Compliance

- **Fuel retailers onboarded**: Nearly 1,300 across Victoria
- **Compliance measures began**: August 2025

Fuel retailers are now required to report their fuel prices to a centralised system connected to a new **fuel finder feature** on the Service Victoria app.

## Service Victoria Fuel Finder

- The fuel finder will enable motorists to compare local fuel prices in real time.
- The feature is set to officially launch later in 2025.
- Retailers must report prices **every time they change**.

## Compliance Enforcement

- **Oversight**: Consumer Affairs Victoria (CAV)
- **Current actions**:
  - Inspectors are visiting fuel retailers across the state.
  - CAV is informing businesses about their legal obligations.
  - Ongoing site inspections and compliance monitoring will continue.

Non-compliant retailers may face penalties under the new regulations.

## Consumer Impact

- According to 2023 data from the **Australian Competition and Consumer Commission (ACCC)**, Melbourne motorists could have saved up to **$333 annually** by refuelling at the lowest point in fuel price cycles and by shopping around.

## Program Objective

The mandatory fuel price reporting is designed to:

- Improve price transparency
- Provide up-to-date fuel pricing data
- Empower motorists to make informed purchasing decisions

The initiative supports cost-of-living efforts by ensuring drivers have access to accurate fuel pricing through the upcoming Service Victoria fuel finder tool.
