FX.co ★ Tunisia Inflation Rate Steady at 5-Month High

Tunisia’s annual inflation rate was 5% in March 2026, unchanged from February, but still the highest level since September. Inflation in recreation and culture (4.4%) and health (2.9%) remained stable. Price growth accelerated in several categories, including food and non-alcoholic beverages (6.8% vs. 6.7% in February), housing and utilities (4.0% vs. 3.9%), restaurants and hotels (6.2% vs. 5.6%), transport (2.8% vs. 2.1%), furnishings and household equipment (4.8% vs. 4.7%), and education (5.5% vs. 5.4%). These gains were partly offset by slower price increases in clothing and footwear (7.5% vs. 8.9%), communication (0.5% vs. 0.6%), and alcoholic beverages and tobacco (0.2% vs. 0.3%). On a monthly basis, consumer prices rose 1.0% in March—the sharpest increase since April 2023—after a modest 0.1% gain in February.
