Spain’s Socialist Party (PSOE) has submitted a legal amendment to the Congress proposing a gradual reduction of the excise duty on nicotine pouches. The current rate of €0.10 per gram would be phased in progressively until 2030. The plan sets the rate at €0.02/g in 2026, rising by €0.02 annually until reaching €0.10/g in 2030. PSOE says this measure would mitigate price shocks and make the tax system more progressive.

Denver to Hold Referendum on Flavored Tobacco Sales Ban; If Approved, Enforcement Begins in 2026

A referendum to be held on November 4 will determine whether Denver retains its ban on the sale of flavored tobacco/nicotine products. Campaign finance records show that, as of the end of August, the side seeking to repeal the ban had raised $410,000, significantly more than the pro-ban side (about $245,000). The ban took effect in March 2025, but the city had planned to begin enforcement on January 2026; if the referendum overturns the ban, enforcement will not proceed.
