Petrol Prices Kuwait

While the topic of differing petrol prices for citizens and expats did raise quite a debate in the past few days, the Kuwaiti government has declared that it will not be approving two petrol prices as it is unconstitutional, in violation of international norms, and Article 29 of the Constitution.

In response to a question raised by a citizen pertaining to the price of gasoline, a constitutional source mentioned that the legal mechanism to support citizens in the case of gasoline can be done through support indirectly. Despite a parliamentary warning to the government to increase gasoline prices, the government is keen to stabilize the market and has not liberalized gasoline prices thus far.

Since September 2016, there have been no changes in the price of gasoline in Kuwait, as prices have not been liberalized to stabilize the market. Although gasoline prices are the lowest in Kuwait compared to the other Gulf States, the demand for a tariff reduction cannot be met as the international cost per liter is still higher than the price at the pumps.
