Recital 27

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

(27) In order to ensure uniform conditions for exempting aircraft operators from offsetting requirements as laid down under this Directive in respect of emissions from flights to and from States applying CORSIA in a less stringent manner in its domestic law, or failing to enforce CORSIA provisions in a manner equal to all aircraft operators pursuant to this Directive, implementing powers should be conferred on the Commission to exempt aircraft operators based in the Union from offsetting requirements in respect of emissions from flights where a significant distortion of competition to the detriment of aircraft operators based in the Union occurs due to a less stringent implementation or enforcement of CORSIA in third countries. The distortion of competition could be caused by a less stringent approach to eligible units or double counting provisions. Those powers should be exercised in accordance with Regulation (EU) No 182/2011.
