Annual change in HICP; The Netherlands, Eurozone and European Union, 2015=100
Description
This table contains figures on the price evolution of a package of goods and services purchased by consumers in the Netherlands. These figures are compiled according to European guidelines and this is called the European harmonised consumer price index (HICP) for the Netherlands. The composition of the goods and services package allows for a comparison of price developments between EU countries.
The table also shows the harmonised consumer price index for the euro area. This index shows the average price development in the countries participating in the euro area. The European consumer price index is also shown in the table. This is the harmonised consumer price index for Member States of the European Union.
In addition, the table shows the annual change in the HICP. The annual rate of change in total expenditure is an important indicator of inflation.
HICP figures are published every month. In addition, an annual figure will be published at the end of the year. The HICP of a calendar year is calculated as the average of the 12-month indices of that year.
Data available from: January 1996.
Status of figures:
The HICP results of the Netherlands in this table are in most cases immediately final upon publication. The results of the euro area at that time are still based on the rapid estimate and are characterized as provisional. A month later, these figures become final.
Results of the HICP of the Netherlands are only characterized as provisional if it is already known at the time of publication that data are still incomplete, a revision is expected in a later month, or in special circumstances such as the corona crisis.
In most cases, all requested price information is known to Statistics Netherlands when the results are published and no further adjustments are made at a later date. However, sometimes certain price information is not available on time and the outcome can be adjusted later. HICP results can then always be revised at the same time as the CPI results, even if they were not published as provisional in the previous month. CPI results are characterized as provisional at the first publication of the indices, the month on which the figures are final.
Changes compared to the previous version:
Data for a new period has been added and/or adjustments have been made.
Changes as of 9 July 2024:
The European Union figures for April 2024 have been revised.
When will there be new figures?
The new figures are usually published between the first and second Thursday of the month following the month under review.
All publication times of the CPI and HICP are published on the publicatieplanning.
