Heating oil is about €480 / 1000 litres at present but oil prices have been rising steadily and refined heating oil rose 10% last week on world markets - this feeds into to retail fairly quickly.

If current refined prices for petrol are followed by heating oil, you can expect 1000 litres to be pprox. €650 - €700 in autumn.

Reasoning - Normally in winter months, heating oil is approx. 10% - 20% more expensive than petrol (excluding all duties & taxes) Currently it is 20% lower than petrol.

Just wondered Caveat, Whats the difference between an oil co. from the North delivering kerosene to an address in the South, and a Builders Providers from the six counties delivering goods to the South
 
Keorsene in the UK is not subject to duty but it is in the republic.

Therefore if NI sourced kerosene crosses into the republic it is liable for duty and any such deliveries will attract the interest of customs.

It would be the equivalent of 'importing' a UK car into the republic and not paying VRT.

I'm not sure about the details of other goods and services and how they are treated but I'm guessing most would not be subject to duty and would not be on the radar of the customs.
