What this value means
Headline national CPI (DTK), +4.4% year-on-year in June 2026, a marked deceleration from +5.2% in May 2026 (down 0.8 percentage points); month-on-month the general index was unchanged versus May 2026. The twelve-month average (July 2025 - June 2026) rose 3.3%. Dominant drivers were housing +10.6% y/y (rents +7.1%, plus electricity, natural gas +24.6% and heating oil +53.2%), transport (fuels: petrol +12.8%, diesel +12%), and food (beef +15.6%, lamb/goat +16.2%, fish +11.1%). Greek inflation remained well above the euro-area average and above the ECB's 2% target throughout 2026, largely on energy and housing. WHICH INDEX: the value served is the NATIONAL Deiktis Timon Katanaloti (DTK/CPI), the domestically relevant index used for Greek indexation and statutory rent-adjustment clauses. ELSTAT separately compiles the Harmonised Index of Consumer Prices (Enarmonismenos DTK / HICP) used by Eurostat and the ECB for the euro-area aggregate; the HICP uses different basket weights and its Greek y/y rate typically differs from the national CPI by a few tenths - do not treat the two as interchangeable. Access: the ELSTAT website (statistics.gr) refused automated HTTPS connections from this environment (ECONNREFUSED, likely geoblocking of the fetcher); the +4.4% June figure, the +5.2% May comparison and the component breakdown were confirmed via multiple Greek outlets reporting the ELSTAT June 2026 press release directly and the published ELSTAT document URL.
