Analysis# Dominica Inflation Rate (CPI)
Dominica's inflation rate stands at 2.3% in 2026, reflecting a dramatic 90.4% decline since 1980 when the country experienced severe price pressures. The all-time peak of 23.9% in 1980 contrasts sharply with the current moderate level, while a deflationary episode of -0.9% occurred in 2015. Over the past five decades, Dominica has transitioned from an economy battling double-digit inflation to one maintaining price stability near historical lows.
A significant spike emerged in 2022, when inflation surged to 7.7%, driven by global supply chain disruptions and energy costs. Since then, the rate has steadily decelerated, declining to 4.2% in 2023, 3.1% in 2024, and 2.8% in 2025. The consistent downward trajectory suggests Dominica's inflation pressures are subsiding toward sustainable levels, with the 2026 figure indicating further moderation ahead.
