The excise taxes on carbonates (excluding sparkling water) and energy drinks are impacting sales of food and drink via internet retailing. In October 2017, the United Arab Emirates began taxing soft drinks, energy drinks and tobacco in an effort to curb overconsumption. A tax rate of 50% was applied to carbonates and 100% to energy drinks and tobacco, which negatively affected sales of these products and largely impacted the lower-income group in the country.
