Over the weekend (on 5 and 6 March, 2022) the Republic Administration for Inspection Activities and the competent Market Inspection Service conducted intensive inspections of petrol stations over the territory of the Republic of Srpska. The subject of inspections was adherence to the Regulation on limiting margin profit in price forming of liquid oil derivatives.

In two days inspectors conducted 78 controls, and in 37 cases found irregularities and issued 74 minor offence orders in the total amount of BAM 527,100.

In order to ensure good business practices and protection of citizens’ rights, the management of the Republic of Srpska Inspectorate and the Chief Market Inspector ordered inspections to continue in the following days.

The Republic of Srpska Market Inspection Service is working at full capacity and will continue their inspections. We invite traders to adhere to these Regulations, because the prescribed fines are high, and each violation will be severely penalised. Fines for violations of this Regulation for the seller is BAM 10,000, and BAM 5,000 for the responsible person.
