Recital 17

Directive (EU) 2023/958 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 10 May 2023 amending Directive 2003/87/EC as regards aviation’s contribution to the Union’s economy-wide emission reduction target and the appropriate implementation of a global market-based measure (Text with EEA relevance) · European Union

(17) Directive 2003/87/EC should also be amended with regard to acceptable units for compliance, to take into account the CORSIA Emissions Unit Eligibility Criteria adopted by the ICAO Council at its 216th session in March 2019 as an essential element of CORSIA. Aircraft operators based in the Union should be able to use units for compliance with CORSIA for flights to or from, or between, third countries that are considered to be participating in CORSIA. To ensure that the Union’s CORSIA implementation supports the Paris Agreement goals and gives incentives for broad participation in CORSIA, the units for compliance should originate from States that are Parties to the Paris Agreement and that participate in CORSIA, and double counting should be avoided.
