24 Recommendations Increase the specific tax periodically and ensure that it be automatically adjusted to keep pace with inflation. Further, the rate of price increase should be higher than the inflation rate in line with best practice.
25 Recommendations Increase excise taxes over time so that they account for at least 70 % of retail cigarette prices. Given the inelasticity of cigarette demand, a tax increase of this magnitude will increase government revenues from cigarettes while at the same time encouraging many adult smokers to quit and preventing numerous youth from taking up smoking, reducing the health and economic burden caused by smoking in Turkey.
26 Recommendations Raise revenues through excise tax increases rather than relying on negotiations with cigarette manufacturers to increase the prices of their brands.
27 Recommendations Consider dedicating a portion of the increased tobacco tax revenues for financing the health care system and supporting tobacco control programs. For the recommended tax increase, 10 % of the resulting excise tax revenues would cover about 5.6 % of total public health expenditures.
28 Recommendations Strengthen ongoing efforts to curb illicit trade in tobacco products. Reducing illicit trade will maximize the revenue and health impact of cigarette excise tax increases. These efforts should include a prominent role for Turkey in ongoing negotiations of the FCTC protocol on illicit trade, in order to develop and strengthen regional partnerships for reducing contraband.
