Get ready to pay more for fuel and gas from tomorrow as significant price increases have been announced by the Fijian Competition and Consumer Commission.
For any area on Viti Levu located within 3 kilometres from any public road, you will pay $3.93 a litre for Unleaded Fuel which is a 80 cents increase, $4.58 a litre for Diesel which is a 76 cents increase, $3.13 a litre for Kerosene, and $3.27 a litre for Premix.
For gas, 4.5 kg cylinder will cost you $17.48 which is a $3.39 increase and a 12 kg cylinder will cost $46.60 which is a $9.02 rise.
Bulk gas will be $3.60 a kg while Autogas will be $2.47 a litre.
The gas cylinder price is VAT exempt.
Prices will differ outside the specified areas.
The FCCC says this follows the latest review of international refined fuel prices, freight rates and exchange rate movements.
FCCC acknowledges the concerns of consumers and businesses regarding the continued rise in fuel prices.
It says the June 2026 adjustment reflects unprecedented volatility in international fuel markets over the past two months, driven by global forces beyond Fiji's control.
The Commission says Kerosene rises by 14 cents and Premix by 29 cents per litre, while Unleaded and Diesel rise by around 80 cents.
FCCC says it phased the adjustment over successive reviews to avoid a sudden price shock from, moderating over time rather than passing the impact of sharp international fuel cost increases through to consumers and businesses in a single adjustment.
It says even with these measures in place, global market conditions continue to push prices upward.
As a result, fuel prices in Fiji have now reached their highest recorded levels, driven by sustained
increases in international refined fuel prices, freight costs and exchange rate movements.
The Commission says this measured and progressive approach in their recent assessments also helped keep fuel supplies available throughout Fiji during a period of major international disruption, while balancing
the interests of consumers, businesses and national fuel security in Fiji.
The major reasons for the increase noted in the prices for cylinder products, Bulk and Autogas,
the Butane CP increased from USD540/tonne to USD800/tonne, international freight rate increased by USD22.51/tonne on average when compared to the last review in USD.
The exchange rate weakened by 0.2296% on average when compared to the last review.
The increase in the contract prices for Butane and the increase in international freight rate in April 2026, outweighed the favourable movement of the exchange rate, leading to an increase in LPG Cylinder Prices, Bulk and Autogas in the Fijian market for June 2026.
The FCCC inspectors will continue to conduct checks during the coming weeks to ensure ongoing compliance.
