Overall Score
2020

Component Score
2020
Tunisia scores mid-range in the tax share and tax structure components, but poorly in cigarette price and affordability change. Tunisia can improve by increasing cigarette prices, reducing cigarette affordability, increasing tax share, and improving tax structure.
Scores Over Time
Tunisia's overall scores slightly decreased from 2014 to 2020 due to a failure to reduce affordability over time.
