Since March 20, 2026, Ukraine has been running a 'National Cashback' program, offering users 15% back on diesel, 10% on gasoline, and 5% on autogas. Starting May 1, the maximum monthly compensation per user is up to 500 hryvnias. According to the program, maximum savings can reach 11 hryvnias per liter of diesel, 7 hryvnias per liter of gasoline, and 2 hryvnias per liter of autogas. This cashback initiative has been extended through May 31, 2026.

Serhiy Kuyun, director of the A-95 consulting group, assured that 'there is no diesel fuel shortage, nor is one expected.'

According to the Antimonopoly Committee, diesel prices in Ukraine have risen by 33.9%, with average station prices climbing 16% for gasoline and 39% for diesel. Committee Chairman Pavlo Kyrylenko noted that 'the main objective factor behind the price increase is that, since last year-specifically after the shutdown of Ukraine's largest and essentially only oil refinery-nearly all light petroleum products (over 85%) depend on imports.'

In March 2026, fuel supply volumes remained at 2025 levels. The price hikes are tied to several factors, including rising demand, shrinking supply and reserves, higher logistics costs, and the inability to compare storage conditions and fuel volumes within Ukraine. The Antimonopoly Committee found no evidence of monopolistic behavior in the fuel market.

Ukraine's rising fuel costs reflect both global trends and local challenges, particularly the heavy reliance on imported petroleum products. The 'National Cashback' program aims to ease the financial burden on consumers, but sustained price increases could impact the broader economy. With no shortage in sight and stable supply chains, monitoring further market changes will be key for consumers and businesses alike.
