After the UAE fuel prices for June were announced on Tuesday, we took a look at current prices in various countries across the globe. International crude prices have been on a rise but prices vary in countries depending on taxes, fees and other surcharges payable.

In this South American country, a litre of petrol costs less than a cup of coffee. Venezuela gas prices cost US$0.01 per litre. Gasoline will only put you back by just over 3 fils per litre.

Other countries in the world where petrol is cheap include ones in the Mena region such as Iran, Kuwait and Egypt.
