Today, the Statistical Institute of Belize published its latest statistics on the consumer price index, external trade, and the consumer confidence index for November 2025.
Consumer Price Index
For the month of November 2025, data from the Statistical Institute of Belize’s monthly Consumer Price Index (CPI) survey indicated that the All-Items CPI, which summarizes price levels across all categories of consumer goods and services that are regularly purchased by Belizean households, stood at 120.6. This was an increase from 120.1 recorded in November 2024, reflecting a national inflation rate of 0.4 percent, and was in keeping with the gradual and steady slowdown in the rate at which consumer prices have been rising throughout the year. For the first eleven months (January to November) of 2025, the year-to-date inflation rate stood at 1.1 percent, when compared to the first eleven months of 2024.
