2022
Ecuador scores better than the average scores of countries in its region and income group, and higher than the global average, yet there is ample room for improvement relative to top performing countries.
Component Score
2022
Ecuador scores well in cigarette price and tax structure but scores poorly in affordability change, and in the mid-range in tax share. It would greatly benefit from reducing the cigarette affordability and increasing the tax share of price.
Scores Over Time
Ecuador's overall score decreased in 2022 due to a significant decrease in the cigarette affordability change score. There was also slight decrease in the tax share score.
