Latvia’s consumer price inflation picked up pace in March 2026, with the year-over-year Consumer Price Index (CPI) rising to 3.40%, up from 2.30% in February 2026. The data, updated on 10 April 2026, indicate a notable acceleration in price growth compared with the same month a year earlier.
The comparison is based on year-over-year changes, meaning the March reading measures how prices have evolved since March of the previous year, while the February figure reflects the change versus February a year earlier. The jump from 2.30% to 3.40% suggests mounting price pressures in Latvia’s economy as inflation gains renewed momentum heading into the spring period.
