From ekonomi.republika.co.id's report, Indonesia’s Customs Directorate General has reported that vape excise tax revenue reached IDR 2.65 trillion (approx. USD 165 million) in 2024, representing a 43.7% year-on-year increase compared to IDR 1.84 trillion (USD 115 million) in 2023.

 

Budi Prasetiyo, Head of Public Relations and Outreach at the Customs Directorate, noted that this upward trend is expected to continue. “For 2025, revenue from e-cigarettes is also projected to increase,” he said on Saturday, August 23, 2025.

 

Despite the growth in tax revenue, trade data showed a divergence. Vape imports fell from USD 64 million in 2023 to USD 59 million in 2024, while exports jumped significantly from USD 289 million to USD 324 million.

 

Budi added that excise tariffs and base pricing for e-cigarettes are currently regulated under Finance Minister Regulation No. 96 of 2024, which amends Regulation No. 193/PMK.010/2021 on excise rates for e-cigarettes and other processed tobacco products.
