The Excise Department is deliberating on the excise tax structure for cigarettes to strike a balance between public revenue, farmers' income, public health and tackling illegal cigarettes.
The present tobacco tax structure stipulates a 20% tax rate is applied to the retail price for packs costing up to 60 baht. If the retail price exceeds 60 baht per pack, a 40% tax rate is applied.
A flat tax rate of 40% was scheduled to be applied since October 2019, regardless of the retail price.
