“From the beginning of October, manufacturers of tobacco heaters and e-liquids have to pay excise duties on them. As it results from the analysis of the Polish Chamber of Commerce (KIG), the current system is designed in such a way that it causes unequal tax burdens for products from the same category. This is hitting Polish e-cigarette manufacturers and Polish farmers producing tobacco for tobacco warmers. The highest excise duty is paid by producers of liquid cartridges for open e-cigarettes, and these are usually Polish small and medium-sized companies. The difference in the tax burden between different products is up to six times. The excise duty rate for liquids for closed e-cigarette systems is up to 25 times lower than for regular cigarettes and five times lower than for tobacco heaters.”
