Saudi Arabia is revolutionizing its beverage tax from January 1, 2026, shifting from a flat rate to a tiered system based on sugar content. This move incentivizes manufacturers to reduce sugar, promoting public health while fostering industry innovation. The new structure rewards sugar-free and low-sugar options, with higher taxes on sweeter drinks.
