FX.co ★ Irish Inflation Holds Steady at 3.4% in July, Signalling Pause in Price Slowdown

Ireland’s consumer price inflation remained unchanged in July 2026, with the Consumer Price Index (CPI) holding at 3.4% year-over-year, the same pace recorded in June 2026.

The July reading, updated on 13 August 2026, indicates that the rate of price growth has stabilised on an annual basis. Both the “previous” figure for June and the “actual” figure for July compare each month’s prices with their levels a year earlier, showing no further deceleration in inflation over this period.

The flat reading suggests that, at least for now, the recent trend of easing inflation in Ireland may have paused, leaving annual price growth running at a moderate but still notable rate by historical standards. Investors and policymakers will be watching upcoming releases closely to see whether inflation resumes its downward path or consolidates around current levels.
