Russia sets minimum cigarette retail price at 117 rubles

Russia sets minimum retail price for a pack of cigarettes at 117 rubles starting from January 1, 2023.

According to data from the department, the calculation was based on the minimum value of the unit consumption tax rate for tobacco product packaging, set by the Russian Federation Tax Law, as well as the value-added tax rate and incremental factor, starting January 1, 2023.
