According to a report by the Irish Mirror on November 11th, if the Republican Party were to come into power again, they would promise to raise the price of e-cigarettes annually.
In the 2025 budget, the government announced that the consumption tax on e-cigarette e-liquid will increase by 50 cents per milliliter. At the time, according to sources, the price of a disposable e-cigarette will increase from 8 euros to 9.23 euros, and the price of a 10 milliliter e-liquid for reusable e-cigarettes will increase by 5 euros.
The Mirror reports that if the Republican Party regains control, they plan to increase the consumption tax on e-cigarette liquid by 50 cents per milliliter annually.
In September, Stephen Donnelly was granted permission to draft legislation to ban the sale of disposable e-cigarettes in Ireland. If disposable e-cigarettes are not banned, a proposed increase in consumption tax by the Republic would raise the price of disposable e-cigarettes by 6.15 euros over the course of the government's five-year term. Additionally, a 50 cent tax increase per milliliter of e-cigarette liquid would result in a cumulative price increase of 25 euros for a 10 milliliter bottle of e-liquid over five years.
The party also promises to impose "broad restrictions" on e-cigarettes, including packaging, flavors, sales points, advertising, and banning the use of e-cigarettes in workplaces, and to work with the government of Northern Ireland to promote the implementation of these policies across the island.
