The committee has increased the rates of retail fuel by up to 27 fils per litre. January 2023, saw a decrease in prices by up to 52 fils per litre.

Motorists all over the Emirate will now have to pay more to get their tanks filled.

Starting February 1, 2023, here’s how much it will cost you to tank up your vehicle:

Super 98 petrol will now cost Dh3.05 a litre as compared to Dh2.78 a litre last month.

Motorists will have to pay Dh2.86 a litre for Special 95 petrol as compared to Dh2.59 a litre in January.

E-Plus 91 petrol will cost Dh2.86 a litre this month, increasing 27 fils compared to Dh2.59 a litre last month.

Meanwhile, motorists will be charged Dh3.38 a litre for Diesel, compared to Dh3.29 a litre in the month of January.

From today, depending on the vehicle you own, getting your tank full of petrol will cost you between Dh13.77 and Dh22.32 more than it did last month.

The fuel price committee in the UAE updates the retail fuel rates at the end of every month ever since the gulf country liberalized prices of fuels in August 2015.
