I am advised by Revenue that nicotine pouches are not subject to Tobacco Products Tax or any other specific form of taxation. As such, details of their sale in the State are not returned to Revenue. I am also informed by Revenue that traders are not required to separately identify the yield generated from the sale or supply of specific products or services in their periodic VAT returns. Therefore, Revenue does not hold any data from which to answer the Deputy’s question.
