Greece Adopts Updated Plain Packaging Regulations

Following advocacy by Smoke Free Greece and partner organisations, the Greek Parliament has adopted updated tobacco plain packaging regulations effective from January 2026.

The Greek Parliament voted last week to adopt updated plain packaging regulations for tobacco products, which will come into force in January 2026. The new regulations standardise packaging colour, require health warnings to cover 70% of both front and back faces, and ban all brand imagery.

Smoke Free Greece had advocated for these measures over a period of three years. We welcome the decision and will monitor implementation closely.
