A new indirect tax on e-liquids for vaping devices in Spain officially took effect on April 1st, 2025. Authorities implemented this measure aiming to equalize the tax burden between vaping products and traditional tobacco, while also seeking to curb overall consumption.
The new tax structure is tiered based on nicotine concentration. E-liquids containing less than 15 milligrams of nicotine per milliliter face a tax of €0.15 per milliliter. For products with 15 milligrams or more per milliliter, the tax rate increases to €0.20 per milliliter.
Initially scheduled for January 1st, the government delayed the tax implementation until April 1st. This extension gave businesses time to adapt to the new fiscal requirements. The first collection period covers April through June, with tax declarations required between July 1st and July 20th.
