“On Wednesday, the Riigikogu passed a law amendment exempting e-cigarette liquids from excise duty until the end of 2022. Tarmo Kruusimäe, chairman of the Riigikogu’s smoke-free Estonia support group, said that this amendment will help save the health of the Estonian people. The amendments will take effect on April 1, 2021. “From June 1, 2018, an extremely high excise duty on e-cigarette liquids came into force in Estonia, as a result of which the black market and cross-border trade flourished. By suspending the collection of excise duties for two years, we are giving traders the opportunity to lower the prices of e-liquid products,” Kruusimäe said. According to him, a break in excise duty payment provides an opportunity to change the habits of consumers by redirecting them back to legal, laboratory-tested products.”
