DODOMA: THE Tanzanian government has confirmed that fuel prices will officially decrease from tomorrow, July 1, 2026,  providing relief to motorists, businesses and households following recent developments in the global oil market.

The confirmation was made today, June 30, 2026, by the Communications Office of the Energy and Water Utilities Regulatory Authority (EWURA), saying the promise  remains exactly as it announced earlier on June 26, 2026, by the Energy Minister, Deogratius Ndejembi.

Responding to an inquiry from Daily News, an EWURA communications official referred to the minister’s earlier statement, saying the announcement was “very clear,” effectively confirming that the reduction in fuel prices will take effect as scheduled tomorrow.

The confirmation follows remarks made by Minister Ndejembi, who announced that domestic fuel prices were expected to decline due to easing international petroleum prices and lower import costs. The move is expected to reduce the prices of petrol, diesel and kerosene sold across the country.

The expected price cut is likely to ease transport and production costs, offering relief to consumers and businesses that have been grappling with high fuel prices in recent months. Fuel prices are a key driver of inflation in Tanzania, influencing transportation, food distribution and the overall cost of doing business.

EWURA is expected to release the official fuel price cap schedule detailing the new maximum pump prices that will become effective tomorrow. The regulator reviews fuel prices monthly, taking into account international market trends, exchange rate movements, import premiums, taxes and distribution costs.

The latest reduction reflects the government’s efforts to ensure that domestic fuel prices correspond with changes in the global oil market while protecting consumers from unnecessary price increases.

The announcement is expected to be welcomed by transport operators, manufacturers, farmers and ordinary consumers, as lower fuel costs could contribute to reduced operating expenses and moderate the prices of goods and services across the economy.

  37. Dear Potential Donors,
    We are reaching out on behalf of the toxico-lactological foundation “Lactology” in the hope that you would consider supporting our unique initiative to create the
    world’s first toxico-lactological database. Our project aims to provide free, reliable, and scientifically
    validated information on which medications, herbs, and supplements may pose a risk of toxicity to newborns when taken by breastfeeding mothers.

    Currently, our team consists of only two people working tirelessly to develop and expand
    this database. However, to fully complete this project over the next
    four years, we need to hire an additional seven experts, including pharmacists, a database administrator,
    and general technical personnel. This would allow us to finish the database and make it accessible to mothers worldwide, ensuring safer breastfeeding practices and
    healthier babies.
    The total funding required for this endeavor is approximately €500,000.
    These funds will cover the salaries and resources necessary to establish
    a dedicated and skilled team who can ensure that our database is comprehensive, regularly updated, and remains a reliable
    source of information for parents, healthcare professionals, and researchers.

    Your support would not only help us complete this important project,
    but it would also contribute to creating a lower-toxic world, ultimately resulting in healthier babies
    and a brighter future. We welcome donations through bank transfer,
    and I will provide our foundation’s account
    details upon request.
    Thank you for considering this opportunity to be part of a truly meaningful cause.
