Slovakia’s consumer price inflation picked up in April 2026, interrupting the recent disinflationary trend. The country’s year-over-year Consumer Price Index (CPI) rose to 3.9%, up from 3.5% recorded in March 2026, according to data updated on 14 May 2026.

The figures are based on a year-over-year comparison, meaning April’s 3.9% reading reflects the change in prices compared with April of the previous year, while March’s 3.5% showed the change versus March a year earlier. The acceleration suggests renewed price pressures in the Slovak economy after a period of easing inflation, and will likely draw attention from policymakers and market participants monitoring the inflation path and its implications for monetary conditions and household purchasing power.
