The Consumer Price Index for April 2026

                               Mr. Nantapong Chiralerspong, the Director General of the Trade Policy and Strategy Office (TPSO) revealed that the Consumer Price Index (CPI) in April 2026 was 103.03. Comparing to April 2025 (100.14), the headline inflation increased by 2.89% (YoY), reflecting a significant increase in domestic fuel prices, driven by the ongoing geopolitical conflicts in the Middle East and the prolonged blockade of the Strait of Hormuz. These factors have led to a subsequent increase in public transport fares. Meanwhile, the prices of prepared food also increased as producers pass on higher costs to selling prices, as well as higher prices of fresh vegetables resulted from extremely hot weather conditions. Other goods and services did not have a significant impact on the inflation.
