Inflation in Oman

This page covers 27 years of Oman consumer price data, from 2000 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 2008, when consumer prices in Oman rose 12.4%.

Prices fell in 3 of those 26 years, including in recent decades — about 12% of the time — most sharply in 2001, when they dropped 0.8%. In a year like that money gained purchasing power rather than losing it. By decade, the 2000s were the most inflationary stretch, averaging 3.0% a year, while the 2020s were the calmest at 1.1%. Over the last ten years inflation has averaged 1.1% a year, markedly calmer than the 2.0% average across the whole record.
