Overview
Guatemala's consumer price index stood at 189.47 in 2025, a rise of +9.87 from 2024. Based on recent trends, this figure is projected to reach 189.47 by 2025. Guatemala ranked 66th globally.
Guatemala’s Consumer Price Index (CPI) has risen from a base of 1.76 in 1960 to an all‑time high of 189.47 in 2025, placing the country 66th globally among 66 years of coverage. The index’s trajectory reflects persistent inflationary pressures, with the trough of 1.75 recorded in 1961 before a gradual upward drift that accelerated in the 2010s and peaked in the current year. Compared with peers of similar rank, Chile’s CPI stands at 190.86 and Estonia’s at 189.31, underscoring that Guatemala now shares the upper end of the distribution with other emerging economies experiencing comparable price dynamics. The sustained climb suggests that without decisive monetary tightening or structural reforms to enhance supply‑side resilience, the CPI is likely to remain elevated, although a shift in fiscal policy or a stabilization of external commodity prices could temper future increases.
