Sri Lanka mandates QR-code fuel rationing, caps weekly car fuel at 15L
→Fuel stations must sell only against QR-code allocations and enforce weekly quotas
Change
Sri Lanka implemented a QR-code fuel-rationing system effective March 15, 2026, limiting cars to 15 litres and motorbikes to 5 litres weekly.
Why it matters
Retail pumps must verify QR codes before dispensing fuel. Fuel distribution is limited to QR-allocated weekly allowances.
Implications
- — Fuel stations must enforce QR-code verification at pumps immediately — pumps will not process sales lacking QR validation.
