Overall Score
2022

Sweden 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

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

Scores Over Time

Sweden's overall score decreased from 2014 to 2018, then it stayed unchanged. In that time, there was a decrease in the affordability change score.
