With new taxes on the way and a proposed flavor ban under discussion, both consumers and brands will need to adjust quickly to stay ahead.<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<h2>Proposed Flavor Ban<\/h2>\n<p><\/p>\n<p>The Spanish government is considering banning flavored vapes and e-liquids to curb their appeal, especially among younger users. While the law hasn\u2019t passed yet, it\u2019s already generating plenty of discussion within the industry.<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p>Interestingly, tobacco flavors remain a strong favorite in Spain. Most local brands already offer a wide range of tobacco options, and with the new rules potentially on the horizon, many are preparing to lean even more into this category to stay compliant.<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<h2>Local and Global Brands<\/h2>\n<p><\/p>\n<p>Some of the best-known Spanish vape brands include:<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p><strong>Bombo, Atmos Lab, Herrera, Liqua, and Drops<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong><br \/><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>These companies are known for their well-crafted tobacco and dessert flavor lines. At the same time, global vape brands continue to have a strong presence in the Spanish market, even as regulations tighten.<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p><!-- Tax Section Image --><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"Spanish Vape Tax Increase\" src=\"https:\/\/www.ytoojuice.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/1743227347775272-scaled.jpg\" style=\"width:100%; border-radius: 8px; margin-bottom: 20px;\"\/><\/p>\n<h2><\/h2>\n<h2>New E-Liquid Tax \u2013 Starts April 1, 2025<\/h2>\n<p><\/p>\n<p>One change that&#8217;s already confirmed is a new tax structure for e-liquids, which takes effect on <strong>April 1, 2025<\/strong>:<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<ul class=\"list-paddingleft-2\">\n<li>\n<p>\u20ac0.15 + VAT per ml for e-liquids with no nicotine or \u226415 mg\/ml<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p>\u20ac0.20 + VAT per ml for e-liquids with more than 15 mg\/ml<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p>\u20ac0.15 + VAT per ml for VG\/PG mix bases without nicotine<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><\/p>\n<h2>What Does This Mean for Prices?<\/h2>\n<p><\/p>\n<p>The new tax will noticeably increase prices.

Some consumers may turn to untaxed or unregulated products to save money.<\/p>\n<p>DIY vaping is also likely to become more popular. Since <strong>longfills<\/strong> \u2014 flavor bases sold without nicotine \u2014 aren\u2019t subject to the new tax, many users may start mixing their own e-liquids at home.<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p>Brands will need to rethink their strategies. Flavors like tobacco and menthol are more likely to remain legal, so companies may focus their efforts on developing stronger offerings in those categories.<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<h2>Looking Ahead<\/h2>\n<p><\/p>\n<p>The Spanish vape market is entering a new phase. These changes will be challenging but open the door to new opportunities. Brands that move quickly \u2014 especially those offering compliant tobacco flavors or longfill solutions \u2014 may be in a strong position to grow.<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p>We\u2019ll be watching closely to see how the market develops in the months to come.<\/p>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Spanish vape market is about to experience some major shifts in 2025.
