About Gas Prices in Georgia
Gas prices in Georgia are reported daily by the U.S. Energy Information Administration (EIA) as part of their weekly survey of fuel retailers. The price shown is a statewide average for regular unleaded gasoline. Prices at individual stations in Georgia may be higher or lower depending on location, brand, and local competition.
Several factors influence Georgia's gas price: state fuel taxes, the distance from major refineries, pipeline and distribution infrastructure, and the required seasonal fuel blend. Use the calculator above to see exactly how today's Georgia price affects your commute, road trip, or monthly driving budget.
Georgia Fuel Taxes: ≈33¢/gal
Georgia has a below-average state gas tax, indexed annually. Georgia's motor fuel excise tax sits around 33 cents per gallon and adjusts annually with fuel efficiency and inflation indexes. Combined with no state sales tax on gasoline, Georgia's tax burden is below the national average, and the state has historically suspended the tax temporarily during price emergencies.
Tax figures are approximate state-level taxes and fees per gallon of regular gasoline and exclude the 18.4¢/gal federal excise tax. Rates change — verify current rates with the state's revenue or transportation department.
How Georgia Gets Its Gasoline
Georgia has no refineries; nearly all of its gasoline arrives via two massive pipelines from Gulf Coast refineries — the Colonial and Products (Plantation) pipelines — which pass through Atlanta on their way up the East Coast. That dependence became visible in 2021, when the Colonial Pipeline cyberattack triggered panic buying and widespread outages across Georgia within days.
Where Gas Is Cheapest and Most Expensive in Georgia
Metro Atlanta usually enjoys the state's most competitive prices thanks to dense station competition and direct pipeline supply, while south Georgia and coastal areas like Savannah typically run several cents higher.
