Thaïlande Taux d'inflation

Consumer prices in Thailand fell 0.66% year-on-year in January 2026, larger than the expected 0.40% drop and accelerating from a 0.28% decline in December. This marked the tenth consecutive month of deflation, the longest stretch since the pandemic, and the steepest in three, keeping inflation well below the central bank’s 1%–3% target range. The Commerce Ministry said the decline was driven by lower energy prices and government measures to ease living costs. Consumer prices are projected to continue easing in the first quarter, with inflation expected to turn slightly positive in the second quarter. Meanwhile, core consumer prices, which exclude volatile items such as food and energy, continued to rise, up 0.60% year-on-year, slightly above both forecasts and December’s 0.59% increase.
