Bahrain’s consumer price inflation came to a standstill in April 2026, with the Consumer Price Index (CPI) recording 0.0% month-on-month growth, down from a 0.40% increase in March 2026. The latest data, updated on 25 May 2026, indicate a pause in price momentum after a month of moderate gains.

The comparison is made on a month-over-month basis, meaning April’s reading reflects no overall change in prices compared with March, whereas the previous figure showed that prices in March had risen 0.40% compared with February. This shift suggests that near-term inflationary pressures in Bahrain have eased, at least temporarily, as headline prices plateaued going into the second quarter of 2026.

Market participants and policymakers will be watching upcoming releases closely to determine whether April’s flat reading marks the start of a more stable inflation trend or a brief pause following earlier price increases. For now, the latest CPI figures point to a calmer price environment after the acceleration seen in March.
