FX.co ★ Romania’s Inflation Reaccelerates to 10.7% in April, Ending Brief Disinflation Pause

Romania’s consumer price inflation picked up again in April 2026, with the year-over-year Consumer Price Index (CPI) rising to 10.7%, according to data updated on 13 May 2026. This marks an acceleration from March 2026, when annual inflation had temporarily eased and stood at 9.9%.

Both figures are calculated on a year-over-year basis, comparing each month’s price levels with those of the same month a year earlier. The latest increase suggests that the brief respite in March’s inflation pressures has reversed, underscoring the persistence of elevated price growth in the Romanian economy. Investors and policymakers will now be watching subsequent data closely to assess whether April’s move represents a renewed upward trend or a short-term fluctuation in the inflation path.
