Ethiopia Raises Petrol Price to ETB 132 per Litre in Latest Fuel Adjustment
  • Ministry of Trade and Regional Integration raised petrol price to ETB 132.18 per litre. 

  • Diesel price increased to ETB 139.64 per litre under latest national fuel price adjustment.

  • Adjustment is part of government policy to gradually remove fuel subsidies. 

  • Price revision aims to align domestic fuel prices with international import costs. 

  • Retail fuel prices are periodically revised by the Ministry of Trade and Regional Integration. 

Why it matters?
Fuel price adjustments directly affect transportation, logistics, and operating costs across Ethiopia’s economy. Higher pump prices can influence inflation, freight rates, and business expenses.
