10.09.202607:30:00UTC+00Namibia’s Annual Inflation Accelerates to 5.0% in August, Up from 4.4% in July

Namibia’s consumer price inflation picked up in August 2026, with the year-over-year Consumer Price Index (CPI) rising to 5.00%, up from 4.40% in July 2026. The latest data, updated on 10 September 2026, indicates a noticeable acceleration in price growth compared with the same period a year earlier.

The figures are calculated on a year-over-year basis, meaning the August reading reflects the change in prices compared to August of the previous year, while the July figure measured the change versus July a year earlier. The move from 4.40% to 5.00% suggests mounting inflationary pressures in the Namibian economy as the third quarter progresses.

With inflation edging higher, the August outcome may draw closer scrutiny from policymakers and market participants tracking the trajectory of consumer prices and potential implications for monetary and fiscal planning in Namibia.
