Duty-stamped stock is ready to roll out.

Good news first: your favourite Cuttwood flavours aren't going anywhere. Here's a quick, plain-English guide to the new UK vaping duty and what it means for your order.

What's changed?

From 1 October 2026, the UK introduced a new Vaping Products Duty of £2.20 per 10ml of e-liquid. It applies to all vaping liquids, including nicotine-free (0mg) shortfills, and VAT at 20% is added on top, which comes to £2.64 per 10ml. New stock must also carry an official vaping duty stamp.

Why our prices haven't changed (yet)

The Cuttwood stock we're selling now is run-through stock that came into the UK before the duty started. The rules allow this unstamped pre-duty stock to be sold until 31 March 2027.

What this means for you

  • Our current prices apply only during the run-through period, up to the end of March 2027, and only while this stock lasts.
  • Once this stock runs out, prices will change because of the new vaping duty and tax stamp laws.
  • Stock levels vary by flavour, so some may run out sooner than others.
  • If you have a favourite, it's better to buy now while stocks last.

Your favourites aren't going anywhere

We will continue to supply the products you love. We're already tax-stamp ready and ready to roll out duty-stamped stock as soon as our run-through stock runs out.
