The Interministerial Commission on Prices agrees a maximum price for the sale of surgical masks to the public of € 0.96


As established by the Order SND / 354/2020 published by the BOE last Sunday, which establishes exceptional measures to guarantee access by the population to the products of use recommended as hygienic measures for the prevention of contagion by COVID-19, the CIPM has agreed that the maximum price of surgical masks is 0.96 euros. This price, including VAT and the equivalent surcharge tax, will be reviewed with the periodicity that market price surveillance requires.

The CIPM has agreed to postpone the establishment of maximum RRP for single-use and reusable hygienic masks to the next Commission meeting, in order to obtain more information on manufacturing costs in the national textile sector.

This commission, chaired by the Secretary General of Health, Faustino Blanco, and under the vice-presidency of the General Director of the Basic Portfolio of Services of the S.N.S. and Pharmacy, Patricia Lacruz, met telematically today in extraordinary session within 48 hours, as indicated by the ministerial order.

The amount of each product will be published in the BOE.
