Canadian Vaping Excise Tax Coming October 1st 2022

Starting October 1st 2022, the government will be imposing a federal excise tax on all vape LIQUID-BASED products, and will NOT affect hardware. 

What is the Excise Vape Tax?

The Canadian federal government is introducing an excise tax that will require every liquid bottle or pre-filled pod sold within Canada to be excise-duty stamped (similar to the excise stickers found on tobacco and cannabis product). 

How much is it? What's the difference? 

• $1 per 2mL on the first 10mL of e-liquid (or pod, or disposable) (effectively, $5 on the first 10mL of a bottle)
• $1 per 10mL above the first 10mL

Manufacturers will have to start duty-stamping products as of October 1st, 2022. Retailers can sell non-stamped products purchased before October 1st 2022 until January 1st 2022. As of January 1st 2022, all e-liquid sales in Canada must be excise stamped. 

Vape29 will continue to prioritize stock without duty-stamped products before Janurary 1st without having to chanrge excise fees ontop. However, as inventory depletes, products will appear with the excise tax and stamp added on.
