Overall Score
2022

Cyprus 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

Cyprus 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

Cyprus's overall score decreased in 2018, and remained at same level until 2022. There was a failure to reduce cigarette affordability over time. The tax share of price decreased in 2018.
