Cambodia Inflation Rate (1987–2025)

Overview

Cambodia's inflation rate stood at 1.63% in 2025, a rise of +0.83pp from 2024. The IMF projects 1.63% by 2025. Cambodia ranked 151st globally.

Cambodia's inflation rate has exhibited significant fluctuations over the past 39 years, ranging from a high of 191.00% in 1991 to a low of -31.25% in 1987. The country's inflation rate was largely driven by economic shocks and restructuring efforts following the civil war and subsequent communist takeover. Since then, Cambodia's inflation rate has stabilized, with the latest recorded rate of 1.63% in 2025 ranking 151 globally. In comparison, Italy, a peer country, has experienced a similar level of inflation, with its rate standing at 1.66% in 2025. Cambodia's inflation rate has been trending downward since the early 1990s, indicating a general improvement in economic stability. However, the continued growth of the country's economy, driven by its manufacturing and tourism sectors, may lead to upward pressure on inflation in the coming years, potentially altering the current trajectory of the inflation rate.
