Twenty cigarettes for five percent more
Due to the EU tobacco directive 20 cigarettes will be in a pack from next May. Therefore, the price of a pack of cigarette will be proportionally higher, because the legislature already prohibits the manufacturers to give discounts to the consumers.
The price of a pack of cigarettes will increase by an average of five percent from next May, when the amendment of the Excise Act enters into force. Aaccording to the proposal supported by the legislative committee, contrary to the existing rules of 19 cigarettes, from next May at least 20 cigarettes will be in a pack. (nol.hu, Batka Zoltán)
