The New Ontario Excise Tax

As we continue to provide top-quality vaping products, PuffLab is preparing for a significant transition in how our products are taxed. With the introduction of the new Ontario excise tax, we will soon begin rolling out items reflecting this change. We want to keep you informed about what this means for you and how we’re managing the transition to ensure it’s as smooth as possible.

Transitioning from Federal to Provincial Excise Tax

Currently, our products carry the federal excise tax, but with the new provincial excise tax coming into effect, there will be a notable increase in costs. We’re working diligently to sell out our stock of federally stamped products by the October 1st, 2024 deadline. After this date, only products with the new provincial tax stamps will be available on our shelves.

We are carefully timing our orders and managing inventory to minimize disruptions, ensuring that you have continued access to your favorite products during this transition.

Impact on Pricing

The new provincial excise tax is higher than the federal tax, and this will be reflected in the prices of all vape products. The tax amount varies depending on the volume of juice in each device. Below is an example of how the pricing will be structured under the new tax system:

To help you easily identify products under the new tax regime, our website will feature a tag indicating "Ontario Excise Tax."

Final Thoughts

As we navigate these changes, we also want to highlight some exciting developments in the vaping world. Products like the Flavour Beast Level X Pod system are offering innovative and cost-effective alternatives to traditional disposables. By separating the battery from the juice pod, this system significantly reduces costs, making it an excellent option for vapers looking for value without compromising on quality.

The Level X G2 Boosted Pods deliver an impressive 25,000 puffs with 20mL of juice, comparable to the top disposables on the market, but at a much more affordable price—typically $20 to $15 less than similar products. We highly recommend checking out this system as a smart choice during this period of change.
