Slovakia’s core consumer price inflation slowed to 1.7% year-over-year in July 2026, down from 1.9% in June 2026, according to data updated on 13 August 2026. The reading reflects the change in prices excluding volatile components, compared with the same month a year earlier.
The July figure marks a continuation of the disinflation trend, with core price pressures easing slightly on an annual basis. The previous data point for June showed a 1.9% year-over-year increase, also measured against June of the prior year. The latest numbers suggest that underlying inflationary pressures in Slovakia remain contained, potentially giving policymakers more room to assess the trajectory of prices in the months ahead.
