Belgium’s consumer price growth eased markedly in March 2026, with the month‑over‑month Consumer Price Index (CPI) increasing by just 0.12%, down from 0.54% in February 2026. The data, updated on 30 March 2026, indicate a clear cooling in short‑term inflationary momentum compared with the previous month.
On a month‑over‑month basis, February’s 0.54% rise reflected a stronger pace of price increases relative to January, while March’s 0.12% reading shows a much more subdued advance in consumer prices. This deceleration suggests that, at least for now, price pressures in Belgium are easing as the latest monthly data show a significantly smaller uptick compared with the prior period.
