Overview
- Eligibility targets families with per‑capita monthly income up to half the minimum wage, prioritizing CadÚnico registrants and Bolsa Família recipients with records updated within 24 months.
- Families of two or three people may receive four free cylinders per year, while households of four or more may receive six, with benefits not accumulating across periods.
- Vouchers expire in three months for families of two or three and in two months for larger households, and any unused credits revert to the federal Treasury.
- Pickups must be made by the registered household representative at government‑accredited GLP resellers upon presentation of proof of benefit, and participating resellers must follow prescribed visual identity rules.
- The gratuity is temporary, personal and non‑transferable, with implementation in stages subject to available funds, and the government expects initial deliveries in November 2025 and broader coverage by March 2026.
