Slovakia’s core consumer price index (CPI) growth slowed in March 2026, signaling a continued easing of underlying inflationary pressures in the economy. Year-over-year core inflation came in at 1.9% for March, down from 2.4% in February 2026.

Both figures are measured on a year-over-year basis, comparing each month with the same month a year earlier. The latest data, updated on 15 April 2026, indicate that the disinflation trend in core prices—often watched closely as a gauge of persistent inflation excluding more volatile components—has strengthened as Slovakia moves further into 2026.

The moderation from February to March suggests that underlying price pressures are becoming less pronounced, a development that could influence expectations around future monetary conditions and economic policy discussions in Slovakia.
