Rate Indexation<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Excise duty rates on tobacco goods increase in March and September each year under the law, based on average weekly ordinary time earnings (AWOTE). The AWOTE indexation factor for rates on and from 1 September 2024 is 1.018.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In addition to ordinary indexation, tobacco excise and excise-equivalent customs duty will increase by an additional 5% per year for three years starting 1 September 2023.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

There will also be an alignment of the tax treatment of tobacco products subject to the per kilogram excise and excise-equivalent customs duty (such as roll-your-own tobacco) with the manufactured per-stick rate, by progressively lowering the \u2018equivalisation weight\u2019 from 0.7 to 0.6 grams.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

These progressive decreases will occur on 1 September each year from 2023, with the new weight coming fully into effect from 1 September 2026. This will raise the per kilogram duty accordingly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
