What will I pay?
From October 2026, a new tax of 22p per millilitre will be added to all vaping liquids. This means a standard 10ml bottle will cost you £2.20 more. This duty applies to all liquids, even those without nicotine. Businesses will pay the tax first, but it's expected to be passed on to customers through higher prices at the till.
