In September, CPIF inflation was 1.5 percent.

“Prices for electricity, gas and other fuels rose by 1.4 percent from September to October. Fuel prices increased by 3.7 percent,” Statistics Sweden said in a press release.

Compared with October 2025, fuel prices have increased by 25 percent, the agency added, while food prices remain below last year’s levels. This does not apply to prices at bars and restaurants.

“It was mainly fuel prices that rose in October. In addition, prices rose for electricity, gas and other fuels. The price increases were largely offset by lower prices for package holidays,” Statistics Sweden said.
