Irlanda Taxa De Inflação

The annual inflation rate in Ireland rose to 2% in August 2025, the highest in four months, from 1.7% in July. The increase was mainly driven by higher prices for food and non-alcoholic beverages (5.1% vs 4.7% in July) and a sharp rebound in clothing and footwear costs (3.4% vs -2.4%). Meanwhile, price growth eased slightly for recreation and culture (2% vs 2.3%), restaurants and hotels (2.6% vs 2.7%), miscellaneous goods and services (1.9% vs 2.2%), while remained steady for housing and utilities (at 2.4%), health (at 2.6%), and education (at 2.3%). Transport costs also continued to fall, albeit at a slower pace (-2.3% vs -2.8%). On a monthly basis, consumer prices increased by 0.4%, following a 0.1% rise in the previous month. Core inflation — which excludes energy and unprocessed food — picked up to 2.1%, from a four-year low of 1.8% in July.
