拉脱维亚的年通货膨胀率从上个月的20个月高点3.9%降至2025年5月的3.6%。经济放缓的主要原因是酒精饮料和烟草制品(4月份为7.3%对8%)、服装和鞋类(0.7%对1.4%)以及杂项商品和服务(0.7%对5.4%)的通胀率下降。此外,运输成本连续第三个月下降(-4.2%对-1.3%)。另一方面,食品和非酒精饮料(7.5%对7.3%)、住房和公用事业(3.2%对1.2%)以及餐厅和酒店服务(4.8%对4.5%)的通货膨胀率有所上升。按月计算,5月份消费者价格指数下跌0.1%,为9个月来首次下跌,扭转了前一时期1.1%的涨幅。
The annual inflation rate in Latvia eased to 3.6% in May 2025 from a twenty-month high of 3.9% in the previous month.

Additionally, transport costs declined for the third straight month (-4.2% vs -1.3%).
