Norway’s consumer price inflation picked up noticeably in March, with the year-on-year CPI rising to 3.6%, according to data updated on 10 April 2026. The reading marks a clear acceleration from February 2026, when annual inflation stood at 2.7%.
Both figures are based on year-over-year comparisons, measuring price changes in each month against the same month a year earlier. The move from 2.7% in February to 3.6% in March suggests renewed upward pressure on prices in Norway, after inflation had been running at a more moderate pace at the start of the year. Policymakers and markets are likely to watch upcoming releases closely to see whether this uptick proves temporary or signals a more persistent inflation trend.
