U.S. import prices increased 5.9 percent from July 2025 to July 2026, according to the Bureau of Labor Statistics. Fuel import prices surged 25.2 percent, driven by 26.3 percent higher petroleum and petroleum products prices and 74.3 percent increases in natural gas costs. Nonfuel import prices rose 4.5 percent, the largest annual gain since June 2022, as higher prices for capital goods, industrial supplies, consumer goods, and food offset lower automotive vehicle and part prices. The data, from the International Price program, reflects unadjusted figures and may be revised in subsequent months. A chart illustrating 12-month percent changes for all imports, fuel imports, and nonfuel imports is available. Import price data is subject to revision within three months of publication.
