🇸🇮Slovenia inflation rate

Slovenia adopted the euro in 2007. Harmonised inflation (HICP) — the EU-wide measure the European Central Bank targets at 2% — stands at 3.8% as of May 2026. That is 1.8 percentage points above the ECB's 2% target, and 0.6 points above the euro-area average of 3.2%.

The breakdown shows core (excluding energy and food) at 2.3%, energy at 17.1%, food at 2.0% and services at 3.9%. The strongest pressure is in energy (17.1%), while food is the softest (2.0%).

Month on month the headline rose from 3.4% to 3.8%, extending the climb.

As a more recent euro adopter still converging toward western-European income levels, Slovenia has tended to run inflation above the euro-area average — a structural pattern (faster catch-up growth lifting wages and services prices) seen across the bloc's central, eastern and Baltic members rather than a quirk of one month.
