Tobacco in Uruguay

Uruguay’s economy remained relatively stable in 2024, in contrast to ongoing economic turmoil in neighbouring Argentina. Despite this, the country’s tobacco industry continued to face considerable challenges, including stringent tobacco control legislation and a high tax burden. These factors drove a notable rise in illicit cigarette consumption, with illegal products accounting for over one third of total cigarette volume sales in 2024 - a marked increase compared to previous years.
