In what has been a rocky year for South Africa’s fuel pumps, Finance Minister Enoch Godongwana has confirmed yet another round of relief for motorists, set to kick in from 4 November 2026. As a purely temporary measure, the national fuel levy will be reduced by R3/l for diesel and R1.50/l for petrol next month until 1 December 2026. Thereafter, the relief will continue to provide support for motorists at a lower amount until 5 January 2027.
