Since August 2015, the United Arab Emirates has implemented a fuel price deregulation policy for gasoline and diesel, based on a pricing mechanism linked to global petroleum product prices.
The policy aims to promote efficient and responsible fuel consumption, support the sustainable use of energy resources, encourage the use of public transport and fuel-efficient vehicles, and facilitate the transition towards electric, hybrid and lower-emission mobility solutions.
The pricing mechanism takes into account a number of factors, including average global petroleum product prices and operating and distribution costs, supporting the sustainable supply of fuel to the domestic market.
Gasoline and diesel prices are reviewed on a monthly basis by the Gasoline and Diesel Prices Follow-up Committee, chaired by the Ministry of Energy and Infrastructure, with the participation of relevant entities and fuel companies.
For enquiries or feedback related to fuel prices, please contact the Ministry of Energy and Infrastructure through its official communication channels.
Energy price structures in the UAE vary by emirate, type of service and energy mix, and may include the cost of natural gas supply and other components associated with energy production, transmission and distribution.
For detailed information on energy prices in each emirate, please refer to the relevant local authority.
