Cigarettes prices will increase next year

The new excise regulations adopted by the Parliament on 7 June 2016 do not take effect on the planned date, on 1 January 2017. The proposed new date is 1 Apri 2017.

However, the excise duty on tobacco products will increase, which will affect the consumer prices – mfor.hu wrote.
