When it comes to tobacco packaging, size isn’t just a detail—it’s a branding power move. Whether you’re selling classic king-size cigarettes, soft packs, or European-style slim smokes, getting the right Cigarette Box Dimensions & Sizes is essential. Why? Because your box speaks before your product does.
At Sharp Custom Boxes, we help brands fine-tune their packaging—from cigarette size charts to fully custom cigarette box designs—that leave a lasting impression on every smoker.
Introduction
The average smoker might not notice the dimensions of a cigarette pack, but you can bet a designer or brand manager does. In fact, the size of a cigarette box impacts branding, compliance, product freshness, and shipping costs.
With Sharp Custom Boxes, you don’t just get boxes—you get packaging tailored to cigarette length, diameter, market demands, and regulations.
Why Cigarette Pack Size Matters
- Product Fit: Ensures that cigarette sticks—short, king size, or 100’s—fit without gaps.
- Visual Appeal: Larger or slimmer boxes stand out on the shelf.
- Cost & Shipping: Optimized sizes reduce packaging waste and logistics costs.
- Market Compliance: Sizes must meet legal requirements in countries like the UK, Europe, and Canada.
- Customer Experience: Compact, stylish, and easy-to-carry packs win loyalty.
Whether you’re designing cigarette boxes for Europe, Canada, or the USA, understanding the sizes is the first step.

100’s Cigarette Box Dimensions
100’s are longer than standard cigarettes and need a box to match. Typical dimensions:

We frequently create custom 100’s cigarette box designs in both hard packs and soft packs.

King size sticks are generally about 84 mm long. Boxes for these typically measure:
- 3.6 inches in height
- Sleek and classy, often with gloss or matte finishes
Soft packs are flexible and pocket-friendly—great for customers who want a lighter, easy-to-fold option.

Let’s break it down:
- One carton = 10 packs = 200 cigarettes
