Methodological notes
In relation to the membership of Bulgaria in the euro area from the 1st of January 2026, the National Statistical Institute (NSI) is obliged to produce and publish Producer Price Indices on the Non-domestic Market in the euro area and in the non-euro area. This is valid for all country members of the euro area.
Producer Price Indices measure the average change in the prices of industrial products, which are produced and sold by Bulgarian enterprises. They can be considered an early measure of the current inflation process in the economy and they can be used for international comparisons. Information for the calculation of Producer Price Indices is received on the basis of monthly surveys on producer prices of industrial products sold on the domestic market and on industrial products sold on the non-domestic market. Producer price surveys are based on a constant sample of groups of products, and that sample is representative of the total industrial production.
Total Producer Price Indices are calculated from Producer Price Indices on the Domestic Market and Producer Price Indices on the Non-domestic Market, weighted with the turnover structure on the domestic and the non-domestic market to the total value of turnover in the base year (2021).
Producer Price Indices on the Domestic Market are calculated at a constant base (2021), weighted with the turnover structure on the domestic market.
Producer Price Indices on the Non-domestic Market are calculated at a constant base (2021), weighed with the turnover structure on the non-domestic market.
