The Netherlands’ consumer price inflation edged higher in August, with the Dutch CPI rising 3.3% year-over-year, according to data updated on 8 September 2026. This marks a marginal acceleration from the previous reading of 3.2%, which was also recorded on a year-over-year basis.
Both the current and previous figures compare price levels in August 2026 to those of August a year earlier, underscoring a modest but persistent inflationary trend in the Dutch economy. While the uptick is slight, the move from 3.2% to 3.3% suggests that underlying price pressures remain present, and will likely remain a focal point for policymakers and market participants monitoring the inflation outlook in the Netherlands.
