Flash estimate of the national consumer price index is released on the same day as the flash estimate of the euro area harmonised index of consumer prices issued by Eurostat
With the Republic of Croatia joining the euro area, and in line with Regulation (EU) 2016/79, the Croatian Bureau of Statistics begins the compilation and regular monthly transmission of data on flash estimates of the harmonised index of consumer prices to Eurostat.
In order to satisfy the consumer needs, the Croatian Bureau of Statistics will calculate and release the flash estimate of the national consumer price index in the form of a monthly First Release, while the data for the euro area will be released by Eurostat.
The flash estimate of the consumer price index is based on the data on retail prices obtained from data sources by the end of the reference month to which the prices refer, which accounts for about 80% of the received and processed data. The remaining received data will be processed and included into the calculation of the index for the purpose of the final data release.
The flash estimate of the national price index is released on the same day as the flash estimate of the euro area harmonised index of consumer prices issued by Eurostat.
Release dates for 2023 are available in the
Calendar of Statistical Data Issues.
Additional information can be found in the
First Release.
