Turkey’s consumer price inflation picked up pace in April 2026, with the year-on-year Consumer Price Index (CPI) rising to 32.37%, up from 30.87% in March 2026. The data, updated on 4 May 2026, underline a renewed acceleration in price pressures across the Turkish economy.

The figures are based on a year-over-year comparison, measuring how prices in April 2026 compare with those in April a year earlier. Similarly, the March reading of 30.87% reflected the change versus March of the previous year. The latest uptick signals that inflation remains firmly elevated and is moving further away from the 30% mark, reinforcing concerns about persistent cost-of-living pressures for households and ongoing challenges for policymakers.
