April 2026 recorded one of the sharpest single-month jumps in recent UAE fuel history. Special 95 moved from AED 2.48 to AED 3.28, while diesel jumped from AED 2.72 to AED 4.69. The move tracked a strong rise in international crude and refined fuel benchmarks.
Since the UAE uses deregulated, market-linked monthly pricing, changes in global oil benchmarks are passed through to pump prices quickly. Unlike heavily subsidized systems, the UAE revision reflects market direction with limited delay.
Special 95 in Al Ain is AED 3.28 per litre, Super 98 is AED 3.39, E-Plus 91 is AED 3.20, and diesel is AED 4.69. These April 2026 rates are effective from April 1, 2026 and apply across all UAE emirates.
Yes. UAE fuel pricing is national, not city-by-city. Dubai, Abu Dhabi, Sharjah, Ajman, Ras Al Khaimah, and Al Ain all use the same monthly committee rate.
UAE fuel prices are revised monthly. The next revision is expected on April 30, 2026 for May 1, 2026 implementation by the UAE Fuel Price Committee.
Most regular cars run on Special 95. Use Super 98 only if your manufacturer requires it, and E-Plus 91 for older/fleet vehicles. Check the fuel-cap label or owner manual.
April 2026 saw a sharp jump because global crude and refined fuel benchmarks rose significantly amid regional supply-risk pressure. Since UAE uses market-linked monthly pricing, pump rates reflected that move quickly.
No additional VAT is added at the pump for petrol and diesel. The displayed pump rate is the final payable fuel price.
