Carbon Emissions Pricing for Imported Goods in EU Waters

  • The initiative establishes a carbon border adjustment mechanism (CBAM) that imposes a levy on carbon emissions embedded in imported products entering the exclusive economic zone of EU Member States, as outlined in Regulation 2023/956.
  • It will define key concepts related to importation and release for free circulation, along with obligations for submitting CBAM declarations and the controls that customs authorities will need to implement.
  • The public feedback period for this initiative ran from July 2 to July 30, 2025, with the European Commission expected to adopt the final act by October 31, 2025.
