Global Market for New Tobacco Products to Reach $79.47B by 2022
The global market for new tobacco products is expected to reach $79.47 billion by 2022, with strong growth in vaping and heated non-burning products.

According to research firm Euromonitor, the global market for new tobacco products is expected to reach $79.47 billion by 2022, with a growth rate of 17.1%. The report indicates that smokeless tobacco will account for $13.95 billion, with a growth rate of 4.9%, while vaping will account for $26.81 billion, with a growth rate of 17.8%. The heated, non-combustible category is projected to reach $33.38 billion, with a growth rate of 15.8%.


In the field of vaping, there is expected to be a growth of 15.9% in North America, 27.0% in Western Europe, and 14.5% in the Asia Pacific region in the year 2022. The growth in the Western European market is particularly notable, largely due to the rapid increase in sales of disposable e-cigarettes. However, the growth in the Asia Pacific region is expected to slow down due to the short-term market demand being affected by the flavor ban in the Chinese market, which will come into effect in Q4 of 2022.


In terms of non-burning heating products, the Asia-Pacific market is expected to grow by 12.1% in 2022, while Eastern Europe is expected to grow by 34.3% and Western Europe is expected to grow by 4.8%.

Sweden Threatens EU Tobacco Tax Deal as Nicotine Pouch Duty Dispute Looms Over November 9 Meeting
Sweden Threatens EU Tobacco Tax Deal as Nicotine Pouch Duty Dispute Looms Over November 9 Meeting
Sweden is expected to oppose a European Union proposal to raise minimum tobacco excise duties, Law360 reported on October 26, 2026, citing an EU official. A provisional Council agenda dated October 23 confirms that the tobacco taxation package is scheduled for discussion at the November 9 finance ministers' meeting, where member states will seek a general approach. The proposed reforms would raise minimum taxes on conventional tobacco products and establish EU-wide excise rules for vaping liquids, heated tobacco and nicotine pouches. Sweden supports harmonising tobacco taxation rules but objects to requiring nicotine pouches to bear the same minimum tax burden as certain smoking tobacco products. As EU indirect tax legislation requires unanimous Council approval, Swedish opposition could block the proposal in its current form.
