Fuel prices in the UAE are expected to be revised for April 2026, with the official announcement anticipated in the coming days amid ongoing market fluctuations.
In March 2026, petrol and diesel rates recorded an increase, reflecting continued volatility. Currently, E-Plus 91 is priced at AED 2.40 per litre, while diesel stands at AED 2.72 per litre, both still lower compared to their respective levels of AED 2.51 and AED 2.85 seen in 2025.
The UAE maintains a monthly fuel pricing system, where petrol and diesel rates are adjusted in response to global oil market trends.
This approach has led to regular price changes, closely tied to international supply and demand movements.
Recent trends in global oil markets indicate that although price pressures have slightly eased, a sharp decline in fuel prices for April appears unlikely, with crude oil still trading at relatively elevated levels.
