Saudi Arabia’s consumer price inflation edged down to 1.7% year-over-year in February 2026, from 1.8% in January, according to data updated on 15 March 2026. The figures are based on a comparison of price changes in each month to the same month a year earlier.
The latest Consumer Price Index (CPI) reading suggests that price pressures in the Kingdom remain modest and broadly stable, with February marking a slight cooling compared to January’s annual rate. Both the current and previous readings reflect year-over-year changes, underscoring a continued environment of relatively low inflation as of early 2026.
