2026 uk vape tax on DIY items

Hello all

I have just been reading and looks like the uk is going to apply tax in Oct 2026 on all vape products this includes vg pg and nicotine

I’m not sure if this is also on the flavour concentrates

When is everyone going to stock up

Seen a post online states vg 5pound for 1 litre will cost 49 pounds when tax starts

is this the case if so how long does pg vg and nicotine last unopened

Forward thinking here chaps

Thanks

Can’t see why VG/PG can be grouped into a vape tax, used in many other applications, same for flavor concentrates. But not sure what’s going on over there?
If you diy I would only be concerned with stocking up on Nic and freeze it, there are some threads around here on storing nic long term, think @SessionDrummer is the expert on that subject…

Oh yeah and no need to sign your posts — every post has your profile information attached to it :ok_hand:

Best to buy your PG and Vg separately, vs a mix, easier to use in the recipe calculator (or you can always just mix your own base)
Also if you buy your base products / concentrates from a site that also sells Nicotine products you are going pay the price…

that was just an example i buy vg and pg separately off dark star and nic of nicotinehub both seem fine to me and both have next day deliveries too (not had not strange tastes or water in the vg/pg like what has been stated here before no crackling poping when using my vaper

flavours from nomz nomz and vapable and if i struggle to source a flavour ebay reseller

I don’t know anything about the upcoming vape tax over there, but I’m sure any site that also sells nicotine will be hit. Stock up on Nic, the rest you can always get. Do you guys have Amazon over there, that’s where I get my VG and PG.
Some of the UK vape sites already have, or are working on, a sister site that only sells concentrates (food flavors) :+1:

I’m in the US, so would probably be different brands over there. You would have to do some research on what’s available, I use palm based VG and Food Grade Propylene Glycol

im sure whatever you have over there we also have here considering most of the flavours are usa imports

i see on amazon lubrisolve-monopropylene usp/ep 99.5% pure 1L for about 15 dollars and 10 dollars for the same brand in vg 1L
