PETROL prices will fall from July 1, 2026, after a four-month surge, with the pump costing motorists between Dh1.70 to Dh40.70 less in each month when compared to June.

Why Have Fuel Prices Fallen? 

Fuel prices in the UAE are adjusted monthly based on the average international price of oil, distribution and operating costs. The July decrease is attributed to lower-crude oil prices in global markets following greater stability in the Middle East but markets remain focused on geopolitical developments. New rates go into effect on Tuesday, July 1, 2026.
