“The CPI of Vietnam this year”
Taking “this year” as the January–August 2026 average, Vietnam's consumer price index stood 4.45% above the same period of 2025. The latest monthly reading is distinct: in August 2026 the CPI was 4.89% higher than in August 2025 — the annual rate at that single month, not the year-to-date average. Within 2026, the August index rose 0.47% from July and sat 3.57% above December 2025. Four independent sources, including Vietnam's National Statistics Office, corroborate these figures; data checked 2026-09-06.
