Indiana Implements New Laws Including E-Cigarette Tax and Transgender Sports Ban
New Indiana laws include e-cigarette taxes, transgender athletes ban, and handgun permit cancellation starting July 1.

Dozens of laws in the state of Indiana went into effect on July 1, including a new tax on electronic cigarette products, a ban on transgender women from competing in women's sports teams, and the elimination of handgun permits. Overall, more than 150 bills were passed during the legislative session, but some went into effect immediately, with most starting at the beginning of the month.

 

Starting July 1, electronic cigarette products in the state of Indiana will become more expensive.

 

Electronic cigarette devices and electronic cigarette pods will be taxed at a wholesale rate of 15%. Other electronic cigarette products will also be subject to a retail tax of 15%. Lawmakers initially planned to impose a 25% tax on electronic cigarette devices, but lowered the tax to 15% during the 2022 legislative session.
