The United Arab Emirates has officially disclosed its fuel pricing structure for December 2025, marking a continuation of its market-linked pricing mechanism. The updated rates, which will take effect from December 1st, demonstrate modest increases across all petroleum product categories compared to November figures.
According to the latest announcement made on Sunday, November 30th, Super 98 premium gasoline will retail at Dh2.70 per liter, representing a 7 fils increase from the previous month’s price of Dh2.63. Special 95 grade petrol will see a similar adjustment, rising to Dh2.58 per liter from November’s Dh2.51. The E-Plus 91 variant will experience a corresponding hike, moving from Dh2.44 to Dh2.51 per liter.
Diesel prices have recorded the most substantial change, escalating to Dh2.85 per liter from the previous month’s rate of Dh2.67. This 18 fils increase represents the most significant monthly adjustment among all fuel categories.
The UAE’s fuel pricing framework has operated under a deregulated model since 2015, when authorities implemented market reforms to align domestic petroleum prices with international market fluctuations. This systematic approach ensures that local fuel costs reflect global oil market dynamics, providing transparency and market-driven pricing for consumers and businesses alike.
The December 2025 pricing announcement continues the nation’s established pattern of monthly fuel price revisions, maintaining consistency with international energy market trends while providing consumers with predictable pricing cycles.
