Latvia’s consumer price growth continued to moderate in April 2026, with the annual Consumer Price Index (CPI) rising 2.90% year-over-year, down from 3.40% in March 2026. The latest data, updated on 12 May 2026, indicate a further cooling of inflationary pressures in the Latvian economy.
Both the current and previous readings compare price changes to the same month a year earlier, confirming that the deceleration reflects a genuine easing in annual inflation rather than short-term volatility. The slowdown from March to April suggests that price growth is moving onto a more subdued trajectory, potentially providing some relief to households and policymakers after a period of stronger inflation dynamics.
