Inflation rate accelerates to 3.3% in August driven by fuel prices

TV RECORD EUROPA31 August 2026 at 15:16

The inflation rate in Portugal accelerated to 3.3% in August, year-on-year, registering an increase compared to the 3.0% recorded in the previous month. This growth represents a significant acceleration in the pace of consumer price increases.

The main driver of this increase was the rise in fuel prices, which contributed decisively to the acceleration of inflation. This factor had a direct impact on the consumer price index during the period under analysis.

The data was shared on the TV RECORD website, which made this news and other updates on the national economic situation available. The evolution of the inflation rate continues to be closely monitored by economic analysts and Portuguese households.

The spokesperson for the European Executive stated that Brazil is an important partner of the EU and that they are working constructively with Brazilian authorities to ensure compliance with the requirements, allowing the resumption of exports after such compliance is demonstrated. Brussels did not provide a timeline for the normalization of imports.
