Consumer prices; price index 2006 = 100, 1996-2015
Description
This table contains the Consumer Price Index (CPI). This index shows the price evolution of a package of goods and services that an average household in the Netherlands buys. The table also shows the derived consumer price index. This is the CPI exclusive influence of government measures such as VAT.
In addition to these indices, the table contains inflation. Inflation as an economic concept is the average price increase of the goods and services consumers buy. Inflation in the Netherlands is measured as the increase in the consumer price index (CPI) compared to the corresponding period in the previous year. The consumer price index shows the price evolution of a package of goods and services as purchased on average by Dutch households. The monthly-on-month development is also shown in the table. You can view these figures about 269 combinations of product groups. For each product group you can also find how much the Dutch consumer spends on it in relation to his total expenditure. This is called the weighting coefficient.

None, this table has been discontinued.
Changes as of 10 December 2015
As of 1 October, the national government has adjusted the points system for housing rentals. As a result, the rents of a limited number of homes have fallen, so the average rents also decreased. The effect of this rent decrease on the price indices of rent and imputed rent could not be determined earlier, as the housing corporations only announced the extent of the rent adjustments in November. The figures of the groups 04100 ‘Employable rent’ and 04200 ‘Accounted rental own home’ of October 2015 have therefore been adjusted.
The figures for the groups 061100 ‘Self-care medicines, 061200 ‘Other medical products’, 072200 ‘Autofuels’ and 083000 ‘Phone, fax and internet services’ have been updated from June to September 2015. This does not affect the published indices at main level.
The derived CPI has been revised down 0.01 index point over the month of August 2015.
