Description

This table contains the European Harmonised Consumer Price Index (HICP) for the Netherlands. This price index shows the price evolution of a package of goods and services compiled according to European directives. The composition of the package of goods and services makes it possible to compare the price movements of consumer goods and services between EU countries. In addition, the table also contains the HICP-CT. This is the HICP excluding the impact of taxes. In addition to these indices, the table contains monthly and year-on-year developments. 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. Data available from: 2002 to 2015 Status of the figures: The figures in this table are final. Changes as of 16 June 2016: None, this table has been discontinued. Changes as of 18 December 2015 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. 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 figure of the group 04100 ‘Employable rent’ of October 2015 has therefore been adjusted. In most cases, all the price information requested is known to CBS when the first results are published and no adjustment will take place later. However, sometimes certain price information is not available on time and the outcome can be adjusted later. HICP outcomes can then always be revised at the same time as the CPI outcomes, even if they were not published as provisional in the previous month. CPI results are marked as provisional at first publication, the month on which the figures are final. If the number is provisional, this is indicated by a *. When are new figures coming? This table is followed by consumer prices; European harmonised price index 2015 = 100. See paragraph 3.
