## How UAE fuel prices are set

The UAE deregulated fuel prices in August 2015. Since then, the **UAE Fuel Price Committee** has set retail prices every month, based on average global fuel prices. The new prices are published by the Emirates News Agency (WAM) near the end of each month, usually on the last day, and take effect on the 1st.

Retail prices include 5% VAT. For quick VAT sums on fuel receipts or invoices, use our [UAE VAT calculator](https://dubaibusinessinsight.com/tools/vat-calculator-uae/).
