30.03.202610:00:00UTC+00Ireland’s HICP Inflation Accelerates to 1.8% in March, More Than Doubling February Pace

Ireland’s Harmonised Index of Consumer Prices (HICP) rose to 1.8% in March 2026 on a month‑over‑month basis, more than doubling the 0.8% increase recorded in February 2026, according to data updated on 30 March 2026.

The March reading signals a notable acceleration in price growth compared with the previous month. Under the month‑over‑month comparison, the March figure measures the change in prices from February to March, while the February indicator reflected price changes from January to February. The jump from 0.8% to 1.8% suggests that inflationary pressures strengthened over the latest period.

Market participants and policymakers will be watching subsequent releases to determine whether the March uptick marks the start of a firmer inflation trend or a short‑term swing in price dynamics within the Irish economy.
