Poland’s consumer prices resumed growth in February 2026, with the month‑over‑month Consumer Price Index (CPI) rising 0.3% after remaining flat in January. The latest figures, updated on 13 March 2026, mark a shift from the 0.0% change recorded in January, when prices showed no overall movement compared with December.
The February increase indicates a modest return of price momentum in the Polish economy. On a month‑over‑month basis, the “actual” reading compares price changes in February to January, while the “previous” figure reflects the change in January versus December. Together, they show that after a pause in inflation at the start of the year, consumer prices have begun to climb again, albeit at a moderate pace.
Market participants and policymakers will be watching upcoming releases to determine whether February’s uptick signals the start of a more sustained inflation trend or a short-term adjustment following January’s stagnation in consumer prices.
