Denmark’s consumer price inflation eased markedly at the start of the year, with the year-over-year CPI rate slowing to 0.8% in January 2026, down from 1.9% in December 2025. The latest figures, updated on 10 February 2026, underline a significant weakening in price pressures compared with a year earlier.
Both the current and previous readings are measured on a year-over-year basis, comparing each month’s price level to the same month a year before. The December 2025 figure reflected a 1.9% annual rise in prices, while January 2026 shows that annual inflation has dropped to less than half that pace. This sharp moderation in inflation could influence expectations for monetary conditions and wage negotiations, as businesses and households adjust to a lower-inflation environment.
