In April 2025, France’s annual inflation (CPI) is expected to remain steady at 0.8%, as in March, according to a preliminary estimate. The complete results will be published on 15 May 2025. Falling energy prices are weighing on inflation, but this is being partly balanced by a rebound in food prices. Service and manufactured goods prices are expected to stay on a similar path as last month.
On a monthly basis, consumer prices are set to rise by 0.5% in April, up from 0.2% in March, mainly due to higher transport and food prices. Energy prices are projected to decline again, while prices for manufactured goods and tobacco should remain stable.
