2022
Russian Federation scores higher than the average score of countries in its income group and the global average, but further improvements are needed to reach the regional average and top performing countries.
Component Score
2022
Russian Federation scores poorly in cigarette price, affordability change, and tax share, and in the mid-range in tax structure. It would greatly benefit from higher cigarette prices, reducing the cigarette affordability, increasing the tax share of price, and improving the tax structure.
Scores Over Time
Russian Federation's overall score increased from 2014 to 2020, then it decreased in 2022. The decrease was largely due to a significant decrease in the affordability change score.
