Nationwide CPI (All items, 2025=100)
The Consumer Price Index (CPI) in Japan is a measure of the average change in the prices paid by consumers for a market basket of goods and services over time. The CPI is released monthly by the Statistics Bureau of Japan and is one of the most important indicators for measuring inflation in Japan. The index covers a wide range of goods and services, including food, housing, transportation, medical care, and education. The Bank of Japan (BOJ) uses the CPI as a key reference for its monetary policy decisions, particularly the core CPI which excludes fresh food prices. The data is usually released around the 20th of each month at 8:30(JST).
