From 1 October 2026, a new UK Vaping Products Duty begins and duty stamps start appearing on retail vape packaging. Here’s what the change means in Wales — and what it does not tell you about a product.
CONTACT ASH WALES
Tell us what you need. We’ll help you find the right route.
Questions about ASH Wales, tobacco control, our campaigns, research, resources, partnerships or professional networks are all welcome.
If your message is about quitting smoking, we will point you to the appropriate stop smoking support rather than offering a clinical service ourselves.
