Oman’s consumer price index (CPI) growth slowed in June 2026, with year-over-year inflation easing to 2.8%, down from 3.8% in May 2026. The latest data, updated on 15 July 2026, indicate a moderation in price pressures compared with a year earlier.
Both the May and June readings are calculated on a year-over-year basis, comparing each month’s price levels with the same month in the previous year. The June slowdown suggests that some of the upward momentum in prices evident in May has begun to fade, offering tentative relief to households and businesses following the earlier acceleration.
