2022
Switzerland scores higher than the global average, but below the average score of countries in its region, income group, and top performing countries, suggesting that there is ample room for improvement.
Component Score
2022
Switzerland scores poorly in affordability change, and in the mid-range in cigarette price, tax share, and tax structure. It would greatly benefit from reducing the cigarette affordability, higher cigarette prices, increasing the tax share of price, and improving the tax structure.
Scores Over Time
Switzerland's overall score decreased from 2014 to 2022, then it remained unchanged. The decrease was due to a failure to reduce the affordability of cigarettes over time.
