Scotland’s single-use plastic ban will be exempt from the UK Internal Market Act from 12 August 2022, allowing the ban to be fully effective.
After this date, the single-use plastic items listed below are fully banned in Scotland unless an exemption applies (e.g. single-use plastic straws).
The ban came into force in Scotland on 1 June 2022, subject to the impact of the UK Internal Market Act 2020, which excluded any of the listed items which were first imported or produced in another part of the UK.
