Saudi Arabia’s inflation rate was unchanged month-on-month (MoM) at 2.2% in October 2025. 
Data from the General Authority for Statistics (GASTAT) showed the consumer price index rising to 104.12 points in October (based on the 2023 benchmark year), up from 101.90 points in the same period of 2024.
GASTAT developed the data collection and calculation methodology for the Consumer Price Index (CPI) in line with international best practices, to ensure greater accuracy and comprehensiveness.
