Finland’s import prices rose at a slightly faster pace in August 2026, with the Import Price Index increasing 7.6% year-over-year, up from a 7.3% annual gain in July 2026. The latest figures, updated on 24 September 2026, signal a modest acceleration in imported inflationary pressures.
The year-over-year comparison shows that import prices in August 2026 were 7.6% higher than in August 2025, while July’s reading reflected a 7.3% increase versus July 2025. The upward shift suggests that external cost pressures on the Finnish economy continued to build as the summer progressed, potentially feeding through to producer and consumer prices in the coming months.
