Central African Republic has shown low adherence to the WHO Framework Convention on Tobacco Control, with limited progress in tobacco control. MPOWER measures indicate minimal compliance across most areas, including monitoring prevalence data, enforcing smoke-free environments, providing cessation programmes, implementing comprehensive health warnings on tobacco packages, and banning tobacco advertising and promotion. Data on mass media campaigns is absent. Regarding taxation, cigarette affordability has worsened since 2010 due to higher taxes, requiring more income to purchase 100 packs. No significant government expenditure on tobacco control is reported, and basic tobacco use prevalence surveys are outdated or unavailable, with high estimated smoking rates among adults and youth.
