Russia to Impose Digital Consumption Tax on Nicotine and Beer
Russia plans to start levying digital consumption tax on nicotine products and beer starting in Q1 2024.

According to a report from TASS, the Russian Finance Ministry has revealed plans to introduce a digital consumption tax on products containing nicotine and beer from the first quarter of 2024.

 

According to the document, the Russian Ministry of Finance has requested approval to stop using the Federal Excise Stamp Tax on tobacco products starting in 2024.
