Résumé :
This report provides a global assessment of taxes applied to alcoholic beverages in 2024. It is an update to the first assessment undertaken in 2022. It qualitatively compares their design and provides estimates of standardized metrics to measure tax levels across countries. This assessment builds on and complements the World Health Organization (WHO) technical manual on alcohol tax policy and administration. It aims to inform policy decisions on alcohol excise taxation and support further research.
Alcohol consumption is one of the leading risk factors for noncommunicable diseases worldwide. It is also a risk factor for poor mental health, injury and poisoning. While historically it has predominantly been used to raise revenue, excise taxes are an effective tool to decrease the affordability of alcoholic beverages and reduce alcohol consumption and related harms. Taxation is even more effective when paired with other high-impact, population-wide interventions that limit alcohol availability and marketing. [Extract from the executive summary]
