  No more
  
  The most you can bring in is 1 box of 20 sticks minus at least 1... Even so, you are likely to be taxed 39.5c per stick
  
  Before I forget bringing in any boxes that contains less than 20 per stick box you are asking for trouble

  Some the coffee shop area so small, that inside the smoking zone, there's only 2 tables
  
  So end up, demand over supply, so ppl just smoke outside

  it definitely affects business. most of the people who drink beers at coffeeshops are smokers.

  I dun smoke
  
  I do check all these duty rates at every year's budget
  
  As for the boxes size, it has been implemented since 2 years ago... Only 20's allowed, 6's, 7's, 10's, 12's, 14's all banned

  For next yr, I dun see any much changes to the duties structure, already now cig is counted by per stick
  
  As long as the smuggling activities is still active, increase is likely to be not as great as in the past 4 years
