Thailand’s core Consumer Price Index (CPI) inched higher in March 2026, with the year-over-year rate rising to 0.57%, marginally above February’s 0.56%. The latest reading, updated on 7 April 2026, indicates a slight acceleration in underlying price pressures compared with the same month a year earlier.
Both the current and previous figures are calculated on a year-over-year basis, comparing each month’s core inflation with its level in the corresponding month of the prior year. The small uptick from February to March suggests that core inflation remains relatively stable, with no sharp deviation in the underlying trend so far in 2026. Investors and policymakers are likely to monitor upcoming data to see whether this gentle upward movement continues or levels off in the coming months.
