NAIROBI, Kenya – Kenyan motorists will not face any change at the pump this month after the Energy and Petroleum Regulatory Authority (EPRA) announced that fuel prices will remain unchanged in its latest review.
In Nairobi, a litre of super petrol will continue to retail at KSh184.52, diesel at Sh171.47, and kerosene at Sh154.78.
Motorists in Mombasa will pay Sh181.24 for petrol, Sh168.19 for diesel, and Sh151.49 for kerosene.
EPRA said the prices already include 16% Value Added Tax (VAT) in line with the Finance Act 2023, the Tax Laws (Amendment) Act 2024, and adjusted excise duty rates under Legal Notice No. 194 of 2020.
“The purpose of the price regulation is to cap the retail prices of petroleum products that are already in the country to ensure consumers pay reasonable rates,” the regulator said in a statement on Sunday night.
The unchanged prices come despite slight fluctuations in the global cost of imported fuel.
According to EPRA data, the average landed cost of imported super petrol fell by 0.10% from US$620.84 to US$620.24 per cubic metre between August and September 2025.
Diesel, however, rose by 1.57% from US$614.08 to US$623.75, while kerosene increased by 2.97% from US$609.59 to US$627.72 per cubic metre during the same period.
Fuel prices have been a key driver of Kenya’s cost of living, with changes in global oil markets and domestic taxes directly affecting transport, electricity, and food prices.
The latest review, effective from October 15 to November 14, offers temporary relief to consumers amid persistent inflationary pressure.
