Consumer prices increased by 0.4% in August

03.09.2026 - The Consumer Price Index (CPI) increased by 0.4% in August 2026 compared with the previous month, reaching 101.5 points (December 2025 = 100). Inflation was +0.8% compared with the same month of the previous year. These are the results of the Federal Statistical Office (FSO).

The 0.4% increase compared with the previous month is due to several factors including rising housing rentals. Prices for petrol, diesel, heating oil and in-patient hospital services also recorded a price increase. In contrast, prices for international package holidays, car rentals and car sharing decreased, as did those for supplementary accommodation.

You will find further information in the press releases in German, French and Italian. The English version only includes the lead of the press release.
