Are other countries taxing vapes?

Yes, many countries globally have already introduced taxes on vape products. These vary in structure, from specific duties per millilitre like the UK's proposal, to ad valorem taxes based on product value. The UK is aligning with an international trend to regulate and tax vaping.
