Overall Score
2022

Qatar scores higher than the average score of countries in its region and the global average, but below countries in its income group and top performers. It would benefit from some improvements to its cigarette tax system.

Component Score
2022

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

Scores Over Time

Qatar's overall score increased before it fell in 2022. The decrease in 2022 was because the cigarette price reduced and the affordability change score fell significantly.
