Average price of a pack of cigarettes in the Netherlands from 2005 to 2018 (in euros)
In the last 13 years, the price of a pack of cigarettes in the Netherlands increased by nearly 70 percent, from just 4.60 euros in 2005 to 7.70 in 2018. In the same period, the annual inflation rate was never above three percent, peaking in 2012 and 2013 at 2.5 percent. This suggests that prices of cigarettes grew much faster than the CPI.
