What this value means
Reference month June 2026, released 13 July 2026, flagged 'final data'. Total CPI index June 2026: 100.2 vs May 2026 (+0.2% MoM), 102.7 vs June 2025 (+2.7% YoY), 102.6 vs December 2025 (+2.6% year-to-date), 103.1 vs the 2025 average. The 2.7% YoY is a sharp step DOWN from 3.5% in May 2026 — that is a base effect, not disinflation in the month: June 2025 had an unusually large +0.9% monthly print. Watch this trap when reading the series direction. YoY path 2026: Jan 2.4, Feb 2.5, Mar 2.8, Apr 3.3, May 3.5, Jun 2.7. YoY path 2025: Jan 4.6, Feb 4.5, Mar 4.4, Apr 4.0, May 3.8, Jun 4.6, Jul 4.9, Aug 4.7, Sep 2.9, Oct 2.8, Nov 2.8, Dec 2.7 (the Sep 2025 drop reflects a -1.6% monthly fall). June 2026 is comfortably inside the NBS target band of 3.0% ±1.5pp. Biggest June 2026 monthly movers: Recreation, sport and culture +5.0%, Personal care and miscellaneous +0.8%, Furnishings/household equipment +0.7%; Food and non-alcoholic beverages was the main drag at -0.6% MoM and -3.7% YoY (index 96.3), reflecting Serbia's capped-margin food measures. Weights: food and non-alcoholic beverages 31.64% of the basket. RZS also publishes a Harmonised Index of Consumer Prices (HICP, EU methodology) in the same release — that is a DIFFERENT series and is not what is served here. ACCESS NOTE: the stat.gov.rs release page (/en-us/vesti/statisticalrelease/?p=17966&a=03&s=0301) renders the text in an IFRAME pointing at publikacije.stat.gov.rs; a plain fetch of the stat.gov.rs page returns only navigation chrome. Cite and scrape the publikacije.stat.gov.rs URL directly. Release numbers are sequential across all RZS subject areas, so the next month's URL is not derivable — go via /en-us/oblasti/cene/potrosacke-cene/. Next publication: 12 August 2026 (July 2026 CPI).
