Dubai Municipality has announced an updated fee structure for the sewage system, set to roll out gradually over the next three years. This marks the first fee adjustment in a decade, affecting current accounts and including charges for sewage collection within areas under the Municipality's jurisdiction.
The increase is intended to encourage water conservation and support sustainable practices, contributing to the preservation of water resources and the development of resilient urban infrastructure. This adjustment aligns with Dubai’s vision of fostering a future-ready city that can meet the demands of its growing population.
Aligned with the Dubai 2040 Urban Master Plan, the revised fees aim to address the emirate's expanding population needs, ensuring that infrastructure is equipped to sustain both residents and visitors in the years to come.
The sewerage tariffs for residents and businesses will be gradually increased over the next three years.
New tariff:
• 1.5 fils per gallon starting 2025.
• 2 fils per gallon starting 2026.
• 2.8 fils per gallon starting 2027.
