The UK Vaping Products Duty starts today, 1 October 2026. A flat £2.20 per 10ml on all e-liquid, regardless of strength. Here's the timeline, exactly what's taxed (and what isn't), the evidence it may push vapers back to smoking, and how to have your say.

The government is proposing a new Vaping Duty that could skyrocket the cost of your standard e-liquids by up to 264%.
