Czech consumer prices accelerated in March 2026, with the month‑on‑month Consumer Price Index (CPI) rising by 0.6%, according to data updated on 7 April 2026. This marks a clear turnaround from February 2026, when the MoM CPI recorded a slight decline of 0.1%.
The latest figures indicate that price pressures strengthened notably over the month, shifting from mild deflation to renewed inflation. On a month‑over‑month basis, the March reading compares the change in prices from February to March, while the previous figure reflected the change from January to February. The move from -0.1% to 0.6% suggests a meaningful change in short‑term inflation dynamics within the Czech economy.
