Saudi Arabia’s consumer price inflation remained unchanged on a month-over-month basis in May 2026, with the Consumer Price Index (CPI) recording a 0.2% increase, identical to the pace seen in April 2026. The latest data, updated on 15 June 2026, indicate a stable short-term inflation trend in the kingdom.
The comparison is made on a month-over-month basis, meaning May’s 0.2% rise reflects the change in prices compared with April, while April’s 0.2% had been measured against March. The back-to-back identical readings suggest that, over these two months, price pressures have neither accelerated nor eased, pointing to a period of relative price stability in the Saudi economy.
