Netherlands: Dutch Reviewing Options for a Sugar Tax

The Netherlands will increase an existing tax on beverages as of January 1, 2023. This is envisioned to have a suppressing effect on the consumption of sugar-sweetened beverages. In parallel, the Dutch government is exploring a progressive tax on sugar-sweetened beverages. In the longer term, an additional overall tax for sugar-containing foods is being investigated. This report outlines the details of these proposed tax modifications, as well as their potential economic implications and effects on industry.
