The figures presented in this article are early estimates of the Harmonised Index of Consumer Prices (HICP).


Euro area annual inflation rate and its main components

Euro area annual inflation is expected to be 2.0% in June 2025, up from 1.9% in May 2025. Looking at the main components of euro area inflation, services is expected to have the highest annual rate in June (3.3%, compared with 3.2% in May), followed by food, alcohol & tobacco (3.1%, compared with 3.2% in May), non-energy industrial goods (0.5%, compared with 0.6% in May) and energy (-2.7%, compared with -3.6% in May).

Table on the euro area annual inflation and its main components. The ten rows show the following items: 1) all-items, 2) all-items excluding energy, 3) all-items excluding energy and unprocessed food, 4) all-items excluding energy, food, alcohol and tobacco, 5) food, alcohol and tobacco, 6) processed food, alcohol and tobacco, 7) unprocessed food, 8) energy, 9) non-energy industrial goods, and 10) services. Data is shown in eight columns: first, the item group's weight in 2025 in per mil, followed by the euro area annual inflation in the month June 2024 and finally one column per month for the six months from January to May 2025.

Main components of inflation

Each of the main components contributes in varying degrees to the headline inflation in the euro area. In terms of weights for 2025, 100% for the headline HICP, services is the largest component, accounting for around 45.7% of household final monetary consumption expenditure in the euro area. It is followed by non-energy industrial goods with around 25.6%.

Food, alcohol & tobacco and energy account for 19.3% and 9.4%, respectively. Together, they comprise less than one third of euro area expenditure, but they can have significant impacts on the headline inflation as their prices tend to fluctuate significantly more than the other components.

The weights of the main components of the euro area for 2025 are presented in Figure 3. Table 2 shows their relative weights for 2025.
