About this ranking
Annual household final consumption expenditure on alcoholic beverages, tobacco and narcotics, COICOP 2018 division 02. Published in euros at current prices per inhabitant; domestic consumption divided by population, not a measure of residents spending alone.
Eurostat national accounts, domestic concept: includes non-residents spending in the territory and excludes residents spending abroad. Includes non-cash items such as imputed rent. Current prices in euros, including for non-euro countries: changes reflect prices and may reflect exchange rates. Not inflation-adjusted or purchasing-power-adjusted.
Every value in the ranking comes from the same publisher and the same period, so the EU countries are compared on one definition. 1 EU countries with data in other periods have no value for 2016 and are left out rather than filled from another source. Equal values share a rank.
