澳大利亚烈酒消费税再上调 行业警告恐催生黑市替代品
澳大利亚烈酒消费税在8月3日最新一次半年调涨后升至每升纯酒精110.15澳元（约77.5美元），这是该国1983年实施该制度以来的第79次自动上调。澳大利亚烈酒委员会表示，除北欧国家外澳大利亚税率全球最高，多次上调被行业批评为「完全荒谬」、打击投资意愿，并警告高税率可能催生黑市替代品。
Excise tax on spirits in Australia has climbed to AU$110.15 (US$77.50) per litre of pure alcohol (LPA) after the country's latest hike on Monday (3 August).
Excise tax on spirits in Australia have automatically increased twice a year since the system was imposed in August 1983, with no other nation paying more outside of the Scandinavian countries.
The hikes have previously been labelled as 'completely absurd', unjustified and blocking incentives to invest in the country's distilling industry by Australia's spirits trade bodies.
According to the Spirits Council of Australia (SCA), the 79th biannual rise on Monday was one of the country's biggest outside of Covid-19. The previous duty was set at AU$107.99 (US$76) per LPA for the period between 2 February 2026 and 2 August 2026.
