POLAND’S NICOTINE TAX EXPERIMENT | #GFN26ScienceLab
13 Oct 2026
Poland is tightening its regulation of nicotine pouches and e-cigarettes — but are rising taxes and expanding restrictions creating unintended consequences?
At #GFN26, Ewelina Woike-Reguła and Robert Boneczko examine Poland’s rapidly changing regulatory and fiscal landscape, from steep excise duty increases to proposed flavour restrictions on nicotine pouches and a possible ban on disposable e-cigarettes.
The discussion explores how Poland has extended excise duties to new product categories, including vaping devices, and how businesses have responded to rules that struggle to keep pace with the market. With further changes under consideration, the speakers highlight concerns about regulatory uncertainty, the growth of the grey and black markets, and the potential risks for consumers.
