The UAE has officially announced petrol and diesel prices for April 2026, with motorists set to face a steep increase of up to nearly Dh2 per litre, marking one of the sharpest monthly hikes in recent years.
The new rates were approved by the UAE Fuel Price Committee and confirmed on March 31, 2026, in line with the country’s monthly fuel price revision mechanism. The surge reflects escalating global crude oil prices amid ongoing geopolitical tensions and supply disruptions.
