COMMUNIQUE
The Rwanda Utilities Regulatory Authority (RURA) informs the public that, effective 17 April 2026 at 6:00 am, the maximum retail prices for petroleum products, inclusive of Value Added Tax (VAT), are revised as follows:
Gasoline (Petrol): Not exceeding 2,938 Frw/L
Diesel: Not exceeding 2,205 Frw/L
These adjustments reflect prevailing international market trends and supply dynamics, as well as Government measures to mitigate the impact of global price surge.
As a result of targeted interventions, the price of diesel remains unchanged in order to maintain support of public transport of persons and goods, as well as overall economic activities.
The public is encouraged to plan travel efficiently, prioritize the use of shared or public transport, and avoid unnecessary travel in order to manage fuel use.
RURA will continue to monitor developments in global and regional petroleum markets and take appropriate measures to ensure fair pricing, market stability, and reliable supply of petroleum nationwide.
