What is the HMRC Vaping Product Duty?
HMRC’s new Vaping Products Duty (VPD) charges £2.20 per 10ml on all UK vaping liquids from 1st October 2026, plus mandatory duty stamps on every retail unit. Thus bringing complex new registration, stamping and reporting obligations for manufacturers, importers and warehouses.
