Overall Score
2022

Hungary 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

Hungary scores well in cigarette price but scores poorly in affordability change, and in the mid-range in tax share and tax structure. It would greatly benefit from reducing the cigarette affordability, increasing the tax share of price, and improving the tax structure.

Scores Over Time

Hungary's overall score fell from 2014 to 2020, and then it increased slightly in 2022 due to an increase in the cigarette price.
