Brief
Venezuela’s subsidized-fuel calendar determines which license plates are eligible to buy gasoline on Tuesday, August 11. The monthly allocation remains capped at 120 liters for cars and 60 liters for motorcycles, while access requires enrollment in the Patria system. The notice shows that subsidized gasoline continues to be distributed through an identity-linked administrative mechanism rather than through unrestricted access to the benefit.
The plate-based calendar, monthly caps and Patria enrollment requirement show that fuel support remains tightly administered. For investors, the arrangement signals continuing state control over a core energy market and directly shapes fuel costs and availability for households and transport-dependent businesses.

Watch for changes to the 120-liter and 60-liter monthly limits, the license-plate calendar or the Patria registration requirement. Relaxing any of these conditions would signal movement away from tightly administered fuel subsidies.
