Sales of traditional tobacco products in Belgium continued to decline rapidly in 2023, primarily due to an increase in excise taxes on cigarettes and smoking tobacco. The diminishing price gap with neighbouring countries, such as France, has also reduced cross-border trade, leading to a significant decrease in market activity along the borders. Conversely, Belgians are increasingly purchasing more affordable tobacco products from Luxembourg.
