The Ministry of Energy and Mines (MEM) has announced new rates for services provided by its Technical Laboratories. The updated tariff schedule was published in the Diario de Centroamérica and will take effect on November 20, 2025.
According to MEM, the change in pricing is due to advancements in study methodologies and updates in technology used for laboratory procedures. The new rates cover analyses of fuel samples, minerals, soils, sediments, water samples, and services related to nuclear applications.
The update is supported by Governmental Agreement Number 191-2025. The ministry stated: "The modification is because the prices for the analysis of some studies are no longer consistent with the updated methodology and technology for carrying out the procedures."
All details about the new pricing can be found in the official agreement document available through MEM's website.
