Alternative and Other Nicotine Products

Alternative nicotine products and non-therapeutic nicotine products are taxable as of July 1, 2021. Anyone purchasing untaxed alternative nicotine products or untaxed non-therapeutic nicotine products for resell must pay tax on those products upon the first receipt in Utah and must also be licensed as a distributor. Retailers only purchase tax-paid products for resell and must be licensed as a retailer. The tax rate for an alternative nicotine product is $1.83 per ounce, and the tax rate for a non-therapeutic nicotine device is 56 percent of the manufacturer’s sales price plus shipping.
