Price of vapes shoots up by €1.50 throughout Spain

Vape prices in Spain increased by €1.50 due to new taxes, aligning them with traditional tobacco products. The taxation includes charges based on nicotine content for e-liquids and nicotine pouches. The vaping tax, part of the Comprehensive Tobacco Prevention Plan, aims to reduce smoking rates. The regulation also prohibits selling e-cigarettes to minors, restricts vaping in specific areas, and enforces labeling requirements. Recent cigarette price hikes are seen as a move to reduce consumption, supported by healthcare professionals. The correlation between higher tobacco prices and decreased use is widely recognized. The Ministry of Health's measures intend to discourage tobacco consumption and protect public health.
