Transport inflation (year on year)

What is this?

How much more transport (fares, fuel, vehicles) costs than a year earlier.

How to read it

  • A positive number means prices are higher than a year ago; a falling positive number means prices are still rising, just more slowly.
  • Unit: %.

What does the data say?

Transport inflation (year on year) (Moçambique (8 cities)) is 14.72 % (Sept 2026), about the same as in Jan 2023.

Over all 45 observations since Jan 2023, the highest was 14.87 (Mar 2023) and the lowest -2.05 (Jul 2025).

Why does it matter?

  • Households: Erodes the value of wages and savings.
  • Businesses: Costs and pricing.
  • Government: Real value of spending and debt.
  • Investors: Interest rate outlook.
  • Mobile money: Nominal transaction values rise with prices without more goods being bought; compare against inflation before reading growth.

What should I watch?
