FX.co ★ Lithuania’s Inflation Rebounds in September as CPI Rises 1.0% Month-on-Month

Lithuania’s consumer price dynamics swung back into positive territory in September 2026, with the country’s Consumer Price Index (CPI) rising 1.0% month-on-month. The latest data, updated on 8 October 2026, mark a clear turnaround from August 2026, when prices had declined by 0.1% compared with the previous month.

The shift from a modest monthly deflation in August to a solid 1.0% monthly increase in September highlights renewed price pressures in the Lithuanian economy on a short-term basis. The figures are based on a month-over-month comparison, meaning the September reading reflects the change in prices versus August, while the earlier -0.1% figure captured the change in August relative to July.

This reversal will be closely watched by policymakers and market participants, as it may signal changing inflation momentum after a brief period of easing prices, and could influence expectations for inflation trends in the coming months.
