Qatar’s consumer price inflation rose slightly in August 2026, with the year-over-year Consumer Price Index (CPI) reaching 4.09%, up from 3.98% in July 2026. The data, updated on 02 November 2026, indicate a modest acceleration in price growth compared to the same month a year earlier.
Both the July and August readings reflect year-over-year comparisons, measuring how prices have changed relative to the corresponding months in the previous year. The uptick from July’s 3.98% to August’s 4.09% suggests that inflationary pressures in Qatar remain present, with price growth gaining marginal momentum as the third quarter progresses.
