Question

I would like to go into importing of petrol is there any idea how to go about it?

Answer 1

any fuel you import is subject to taxes and import duties and also any resell taxes aswell,, its really not worth the effort,,

Answer 2

Oil is refined into petrol in the UK so there wouldn't be any point in importing it.  How would you sell it ?  The main oil companies have all the petrol stations sewn up now.

If you wanted to import it, you would need :-

1 Someone to buy from

2 Tankers to ship it over to the UK

3 A port to unload the tankers

4 Storage at the port

5 Road tankers to move it to the petrol stations

Answer 3

Good luck with that.

Gas is getting $$$, and everyone is trying to get as much as they can get their hands on for the lowest price. If gas wasn't such an issue, I doubt it would be a problem, but because of the extremely high prices and crazy oil markets, you're going to have one heck of a time trying to get a hold of some oil, and if you get the opportunity, its gonna be very very very very very very very very very /VERY/ expensive $$$$. You're not going to be saving time and money importing at this time.
