Component Score
2020
Luxembourg scores in the mid-range for the cigarette price, tax share, and tax structure components but scores poorly in affordability change. Luxembourg would benefit from increasing its cigarette price, reducing cigarette affordability, further increasing tax share of price, and improving its tax structure.
Scores Over Time
Luxembourg's overall scores decreased from 2014 to 2020 due to a failure to reduce the cigarette affordability over time.
