Under the EU ETS, all airlines operating in Europe, European and non-European alike, are required to monitor, report and verifySearch for available translations of the preceding their emissions, and to surrender allowances against those emissions. They receive tradeable allowancesSearch for available translations of the preceding covering a certain level of emissions from their flights per year.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify; \">The European Commission is now proposing to revise the ETS aviation rules, as part of the Fit for 55 legislativeSearch for available translations of the preceding  package, to help ensure that the sector contributes to the more ambitious target of achieving net emission reductions of at least 55% by 2030, compared to 1990 levels.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify; \"><b>Objectives<\/b><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Contribute to the European Green Deal objective of reducing transport emissions by 90% by 2050, compared to 1990 levels<\/li>\n<li>Implement the Carbon Offset and Reduction Scheme for International Aviation (CORSIA) under the International Civil Aviation Organization<\/li>\n<li>Ensure that airlines operating flights on the same routes are treated equally, regardless of nationality, by maintaining a routes-based approach<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify; \"><b>Key elements<\/b><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify; \">The Commission proposes that flights within the European Economic Area (EEA) continue to be covered by the EU ETS, as well as flights to Switzerland and the UK. <span style=\"background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0); color: var(--body_typography-color); font-family: var(--body_typography-font-family); font-size: var(--body_typography-font-size); font-style: var(--body_typography-font-style,normal); font-weight: var(--body_typography-font-weight); letter-spacing: var(--body_typography-letter-spacing);\">Aside from those constituting public service obligations, flights between the EU\u2019s outermost regions (OMRs) will be included in the EU ETS.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify; \">International flights between OMRs and EEA countries will also be included.

Emissions from these flights will be offset once collective international emissions exceed 2019 levels.
