Lithuania’s consumer price growth eased markedly in April 2026, with the Consumer Price Index (CPI) rising 0.6% month-on-month, down from a 1.5% increase in March. The latest data, updated on 11 May 2026, signal a notable deceleration in short-term inflation momentum.

On a month-over-month basis, April’s reading reflects a significantly slower pace of price increases compared with March, when the CPI had accelerated by 1.5% versus the previous month. The comparison framework shows that “actual” April figures measure the change from March to April, while the “previous” indicator captured the change from February to March.

The sharp slowdown in monthly CPI growth suggests easing price pressures in Lithuania as of April, which may influence expectations around consumer spending, wage negotiations, and future monetary policy discussions in the country and the wider region.
