Mozambique’s consumer price inflation ticked higher in March 2026, with the year-on-year Consumer Price Index (CPI) rising to 3.40%, up from 3.20% recorded in February 2026. The latest figures, updated on 13 April 2026, indicate a modest increase in price pressures but still suggest a relatively contained inflation environment.
Both the current and previous readings are measured on a year-over-year basis, comparing each month’s price levels to the same month a year earlier. The February indicator reflected a 3.20% annual change, while March’s 3.40% print shows a slight acceleration in the pace of consumer price growth. For policymakers and investors, the data will be watched for signs of whether this uptick is temporary or the start of a more sustained shift in Mozambique’s inflation trend.
