Inflation in Mozambique

Mozambique inflation is 4.40% in 2026, following 4.37% in 2025. 23 years of data are available, from 2004.

This page covers 23 years of Mozambique consumer price data, from 2004 to 2026. Series that begin this late usually do so because the country, the currency or the statistical agency behind the index did not exist in its current form before then. The steepest single year on record was 2016, when consumer prices in Mozambique rose 17.4%.

Prices have not fallen across a full year once in the 22 years recorded here. Every year on this page moves in the same direction, which is why an amount of money always buys less later than earlier. By decade, the 2000s were the most inflationary stretch, averaging 9.3% a year, while the 2020s were the calmest at 5.7%. Over the last ten years inflation has averaged 6.2% a year, below the 7.4% average across the whole record.
