Estonia’s Consumer Price Index (CPI) moved back into positive territory in April 2026, rising 0.80% month-over-month after flatlining in March. The latest data, updated on 8 May 2026, show a clear break from the 0.00% monthly change recorded in March 2026, when prices showed no overall movement compared with February.

The April uptick signals a renewed increase in consumer prices after a brief pause in inflationary pressure. On a month-over-month basis, the current figure reflects how prices in April compare to March, while the previous indicator measured March against February. The shift from zero growth to a 0.80% gain suggests that Estonian households and businesses are once again facing rising costs, a development that will be closely watched by policymakers and market participants tracking the country’s inflation dynamics.

The return of price growth may influence expectations around economic activity and future monetary conditions, as analysts assess whether April’s move marks the beginning of a sustained inflation trend or a temporary rebound following March’s stagnation.
