Official INE data
The CPI for 2025, December on December, was 2.9% in Spain and 2.9% in the Basque Country, according to the National Statistics Institute (INE).

Here is the series for Spain, for each autonomous community and for each province, with its official source.

* Cumulative change for the current year: it is not the revision figure of any agreement. Asturias, Cantabria, the Balearic Islands, La Rioja, Madrid, Murcia, Navarre, Ceuta and Melilla are in the table of autonomous communities.
If the agreement only says “CPI”, “real CPI” or “CPI for 2026”, the reference is the national CPI published by the INE, December on December. A regional or provincial CPI only applies when the agreement says so expressly.
Three sources support this:
Judgment 211/2025 of 25 March
Food retail agreement of Asturias. The clause said “the CPI for those years” and the dispute was between the 2022 annual average and the December-on-December change. The latter was upheld.
Study on salary variation clauses (2015)
Clauses tied to a CPI other than the national one, such as the Basque Country’s or Catalonia’s, are the least frequent and say so expressly.
Read the study (PDF, Spanish) →Salary tables published in the gazettes
When a regional or provincial agreement raises its tables “by the CPI” without further detail, the actual increase matches the national CPI in the vast majority of cases that can be checked.
Each agreement’s page states whether the territory is set by the agreement itself, whether the national CPI has been taken because it does not specify one, and whether its tables or the figures printed in the gazette confirm it. When anything points to another territory, nothing is inferred.
Whichever the agreement itself says. The most common is the change in the CPI from December to the previous December, and the territory is set by the clause: the national CPI, the autonomous community’s or the province’s. Some agreements use another reference, such as the annual average, a twelve-month period that does not match the calendar year, the sum of several years or the forecast CPI.
The INE (Spain’s National Statistics Institute) publishes the final December figure in mid-January of the following year. Until then the revision cannot be calculated, which is why many agreements pay the back pay in the January or February payslip.
The national one: the general national index published by the INE, taken December on December. In the dispute over the food retail agreement of Asturias (Supreme Court judgment 211/2025 of 25 March) the figure that was upheld, 5.7%, is the national CPI for 2022, and the tables published by the agreements themselves confirm it too. A regional or provincial CPI only applies when the agreement says so expressly.
No, unless the calculation can be checked against a published figure. If the gazette does not publish the revised table, the agreement’s page shows the gazette table with a notice, the CPI that applies and a link to this page.
