The data for 2023 reveals that Lithuania (15.836) leads in the Harmonized Index of Consumer Prices (HICP) for educational textbooks, followed by Malta (13.379) and Denmark (13.34). Countries such as Portugal (1.296) and Luxembourg (0.772) show significantly lower HICP values. The year-on-year variations indicate substantial increases in Lithuania (8.11%) and Bulgaria (5.47%), while Hungary saw a drastic decrease (-69.17%) in 2022.
