Methodological information

 

Prices of fuels for transport are collected centrally four times each month up to the 25th day using both in-person price collection and the LETA website. The sample includes the largest retailers, selected based on the retail turnover. Retail turnover is also used to determine internal weights, ensuring that each retailer contributes to overall price changes in proportion to its turnover. Depending on the type of fuel, the number of price observations collected for each retailer may vary, while the weights remain unchanged throughout the year.

The corresponding tables in the official statistics portal database will be updated on 8 July 2026. 

More information on consumer price changes is available in the Consumer prices section of the official statistics portal.
