As one of the EU’s leading tobacco-growing countries, Poland has a unique perspective on the future of European excise and agri-tobacco policy.

This panel will explore the case for harmonising dry tobacco excise taxation, examine which categories should fall under the definition of dry tobacco, and discuss the practical implications for businesses and authorities. Experts will also address potential challenges and risks regarding the harmonisation, including excise security, differences in national excise rates, and the treatment of excisable losses of raw and dry tobacco.
