Poland’s consumer price inflation picked up in March 2026, with the year-over-year Consumer Price Index (CPI) rising to 3.0%, up from 2.4% previously. Both the current and prior readings are comparisons of March price levels against the same month a year earlier, indicating a clear acceleration in inflation momentum.

The latest data, updated on 15 April 2026, show that after easing to 2.4% on a year-over-year basis, inflation has moved further away from that lower reading to reach 3.0% in March. While still within a relatively moderate range by recent historical standards, the shift signals a renewed upward pressure on prices in Poland as the first quarter of 2026 concludes.

Market participants and policymakers will be watching subsequent releases closely to determine whether March’s uptick represents the start of a more persistent inflation trend or a temporary fluctuation within an otherwise stable price environment.
