War in Iran, rain of price increases: up to 1,415 euros more per year for families

Rain of price increases due to the war in Iran: on the basis of the inflation acquired by Istat for the whole of 2026 and considering the total annual consumption expenditure of the various types of families, - calculates Codacons - the impact of the price increases triggered since the beginning of the conflict will lead a pensioner who lives alone to spend a total of 667 euros more than last year with the same consumption (and assuming that prices remain at current levels).

For a single person under 35, the additional cost will be 704 euros, while a couple without children will have to take into account 1,167 euros more at the end of the year. For a single-parent family, the annual expense will be higher by 976 euros, which rises to +1,281 euros for a couple with one child and reaches 1,415 euros if there are two dependent children.

But the increases in prices and tariffs also have a different weight depending on the main source of income of a family - reveals Codacons - Based on the classification of the professional condition of the head of the family as defined by Istat, an unemployed person would find himself spending +701 euros at the end of 2026, which becomes +936 euros if the main salary in the house is that of a worker, +1,259 euros for a manager or a manager, +1,616 euros for an entrepreneur or freelancer.
