Bryssel, 16 januari 2026 \u2013 Ett l\u00e4ckt utkast till Europeiska r\u00e5dets uppdaterade tobaksdirektiv (TED), rapporterat av Rensa luften<\/a>, visar att skattesatserna p\u00e5 vapingprodukter, nikotinp\u00e5sar och uppv\u00e4rmd tobak \u00e4r n\u00e5got l\u00e4gre \u00e4n i f\u00f6rra sommarens plan som presenterades av Europeiska kommissionen, men att det \u00f6vergripande budskapet f\u00f6rblir of\u00f6r\u00e4ndrat. EU vill fortfarande behandla mindre skadliga alternativ n\u00e4stan som cigaretter och s\u00e4tter int\u00e4kter f\u00f6re folkh\u00e4lsan.<\/p>\n

Michael Landl, chef f\u00f6r World Vapers' Alliance, sa:<\/p>\n

\u201c"De tog ett litet steg tillbaka i siffrorna, men riktningen \u00e4r fortfarande helt fel. Nikotinanv\u00e4ndare behandlas som bankomater. N\u00e5got l\u00e4gre niv\u00e5er f\u00f6r\u00e4ndrar inte det faktum att den h\u00e4r planen kommer att f\u00e5 folk att forts\u00e4tta r\u00f6ka och straffa dem som f\u00f6rs\u00f6ker sluta med mindre skadliga alternativ."\u201d
\n<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

Mest chockerande \u00e4r r\u00e5dets eget medgivande i utkastet: \u201cDenna strategi syftar ocks\u00e5 till att motverka skatteinducerad substitution mellan produkter.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cDetta inneb\u00e4r att Bryssel uttryckligen vill hindra r\u00f6kare fr\u00e5n att byta till vaping, p\u00e5sar eller uppv\u00e4rmd tobak. R\u00e5dets utkast s\u00e4ger att r\u00f6kare b\u00f6r forts\u00e4tta r\u00f6ka cigaretter \u00e4ven om de inte kan sluta. Detta \u00e4r motsatsen till skademinskning. M\u00e5let med beskattning m\u00e5ste vara att driva m\u00e4nniskor till mindre skadliga alternativ, inte blockera dem.\u201d<\/em><\/strong> tillade Landl.<\/em><\/p>\n

Enligt det uppdaterade utkastet skulle skatter p\u00e5 e-v\u00e4tskor, nikotinp\u00e5sar och uppv\u00e4rmd tobak fortfarande eliminera mycket av prisskillnaden j\u00e4mf\u00f6rt med cigaretter, \u00e4ven om vissa siffror \u00e4r l\u00e4gre \u00e4n i tidigare versioner. Det inneb\u00e4r att byte blir mindre attraktivt, s\u00e4rskilt f\u00f6r personer med l\u00e4gre inkomster som \u00e4r mest drabbade av r\u00f6kning och beh\u00f6ver mest prisv\u00e4rda alternativ.<\/p>\n

World Vapers' Alliance uppmanar EU:s medlemsstater att avvisa det nuvarande utkastet och kr\u00e4va en verklig strategi f\u00f6r att minska skadeverkningarna i beskattningen. Det inneb\u00e4r mycket l\u00e4gre eller ingen punktskatt p\u00e5 vapingprodukter, nikotinp\u00e5sar och uppv\u00e4rmd tobak j\u00e4mf\u00f6rt med cigaretter, s\u00e5 att r\u00f6kare har en stark ekonomisk anledning att byta.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
