FX.co ★ Czech Inflation Accelerates to 2.5% in April, Moving Further Above March Levels

Consumer price inflation in the Czech Republic picked up in April 2026, with the year-over-year CPI rising to 2.5%, up from 1.9% in March 2026. The data, updated on 6 May 2026, indicate a clear acceleration in price growth compared with the same month a year earlier.

Both the March and April readings are measured on a year-over-year basis, comparing each month’s consumer prices to those of the corresponding month in the previous year. The move from 1.9% in March to 2.5% in April suggests inflationary pressures have strengthened into the second quarter, potentially influencing expectations for monetary policy, household purchasing power, and corporate planning in the Czech economy.
