Fuels: in the Face of the Anxiety of the French, Help to the Great Long and Extended Rollers
The aid now covers 5.5 million people and adds some self-employed nurses and home-care workers, officials said.
- The French government is extending and expanding a €100 fuel payment for people who drive long distances for work, now covering 5.5 million people.
- Introduced in April to help drivers manage rising fuel prices, the scheme is broadening eligibility to include self-employed nurses and home-care workers.
- To qualify, you must use a petrol, diesel, or non-rechargeable hybrid vehicle for work, with income limits of €2,050 for a single person, €4,070 for a couple, and €6,100 for a couple with two children.
- People who already received the payment will receive funds automatically, while others can use the simulator on the French tax authority's website to check eligibility by September 30th, 2026.
- Fully electric and plug-in hybrid vehicles are excluded from the scheme, while self-employed nurses traveling over 100km daily can receive an additional €80 rural and regional payment.
