Abstract

The 2020 Economic Package includes an Amendment to the Taw Law (SHCP (2019)) that proposes an IEPS Tax Update to tobacco products. Based on CIEP estimations, a tax increase on cigarettes results in reducing sales and collecting more public revenue, which can be used to address health problems caused by tobacco consumption.
