Greece’s consumer price inflation accelerated notably in March 2026, with the year-on-year Consumer Price Index (CPI) climbing to 3.9%, up from 2.7% in February 2026. The latest data, updated on 15 April 2026, underscores a strengthening inflation trend after a more moderate pace earlier in the year.

On a year-over-year basis, the March figure reflects a faster increase in prices compared with the same month a year earlier, and the step-up from February indicates mounting price pressures within the Greek economy. The previous reading for February was also calculated on a year-over-year basis, comparing that month’s price levels with those of February a year before.

The move from 2.7% to 3.9% in just one month highlights a notable shift in the inflation environment as 2026 progresses, which will likely keep investors and policymakers closely focused on how price dynamics evolve in the coming months.
