Austria’s consumer price inflation ticked up in May 2026, interrupting the recent easing trend and underscoring persistent price pressures in the economy. According to the latest data updated on 2 June 2026, the country’s Consumer Price Index (CPI), measured year-over-year, rose to 3.70%, up from 3.51% in April 2026.

The figures are based on annual comparisons: the May 2026 reading reflects price changes versus May a year earlier, while April’s figure captured changes against April of the previous year. The uptick suggests that, despite earlier signs of moderation, inflationary forces remain in play, and will likely stay on the radar of policymakers and market participants watching the trajectory of consumer prices in Austria.
