            COMMISSION DELEGATED REGULATION (EU) 2025/927
of 20 May 2025
         
supplementing Directive 2003/87/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council as regards measures adopted by the International Civil Aviation Organization for the monitoring, reporting and verification of aviation emissions for the purpose of implementing a global market-based measure and repealing Commission Delegated Regulation (EU) 2019/1603
(Text with EEA relevance)


THE EUROPEAN COMMISSION,

Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union,


Having regard to Directive 2003/87/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council of 13 October 2003 establishing a system for greenhouse gas emission allowance trading within the Union and amending Council Directive 96/61/EC (1), and in particular Article 28c thereof,

Whereas:







(1)


Aviation activities are included in the system for greenhouse gas emission allowance trading within the Union (‘EU ETS’) established by Directive 2003/87/EC.












(2)


Directive 2003/87/EC was amended by Directive (EU) 2023/958 of the European Parliament and of the Council (2) to provide for an increased contribution by aviation to the Union’s economy-wide emission reduction target and to appropriately implement the Carbon Offsetting and Reduction Scheme for International Aviation (CORSIA) of the International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO). That amendment maintains the scope of the EU ETS for intra-European flights until 2026 and applies CORSIA to flights of aircraft operators based in the European Economic Area (EEA), other than flights within the EEA and flights between the EEA and Switzerland and the United Kingdom.












(3)


CORSIA has been in operation since 2019 for monitoring, reporting and verification of carbon dioxide emissions. It is intended to be a globally applied market-based measure, which aims to offset international aviation carbon dioxide emissions from January 2021.












(4)


On 27 June 2018, the ICAO Council adopted the first edition of Annex 16, Volume IV, to the Convention on International Civil Aviation signed on 7 December 1944, establishing the International Standards and Recommended Practices on Environmental Protection for CORSIA (CORSIA SARPs). The Union and its Member States have been implementing CORSIA as appropriate from the start of the period 2021–2023, in accordance with Council Decision (EU) 2020/954 (3). ICAO adopted the Second Edition of the CORSIA SARPs on 20 March 2023. It became effective on 31 July 2023 and became applicable on 1 January 2024.












(5)


Pursuant to Article 28c of Directive 2003/87/EC, Commission Delegated Regulation (EU) 2019/1603 (4) was adopted to provisionally implement the CORSIA rules for the monitoring, reporting and verification of aviation emissions. Directive 2003/87/EC was subsequently amended in order to appropriately implement CORSIA into Union law. Therefore, the provisional rules laid down in Delegated Regulation (EU) 2019/1603 should be updated to bring them in line with the most recent provisions set out in Directive 2003/87/EC. This alignment requires the appropriate regulation of the monitoring, reporting and verification of the use of CORSIA eligible fuels and of cancellation of emissions units for offsetting under CORSIA. In light of the extent of modifications and in the interest of clarity, this Regulation should replace Delegated Regulation (EU) 2019/1603.












(6)


Arrangements for the monitoring and reporting of emissions as well as the verification of emission reports apply, for the purposes of the EU ETS, in accordance with Commission Implementing Regulations (EU) 2018/2066 (5) and (EU) 2018/2067 (6). For reasons of administrative efficiency and to minimise compliance costs for operators, it is appropriate to apply the same provisions for the implementation of ICAO’s CORSIA, while setting diverging rules in this Regulation, where appropriate.












(7)


In order to ensure alignment with the relevant instruments adopted at ICAO and to avoid any distortion of competition, apart from the international flights covered by Annex I to Directive 2003/87/EC, this Regulation should also apply to flights which depart from or arrive in an aerodrome situated in one of the overseas countries and territories, as listed in Annex II to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union.












(8)


It should be possible to certify a batch of alternative aviation fuel under several schemes if it fulfils the criteria for each of those schemes. In order to prevent double claiming, aircraft operators should submit a declaration listing all greenhouse gas schemes they participate in, confirming that no amount of the alternative aviation fuel is reported more than once. Notably, Implementing Regulation (EU) 2018/2066 introduced the principle of proportionality for the reporting rules for the use of alternative aviation fuels. Where alternative aviation fuels cannot be physically attributed at an aerodrome to a specific flight, the aircraft operator should report the fuel under the EU ETS in proportion with its emissions on flights covered by the EU ETS. In this case, it should be possible for the aircraft operator to report and claim the remaining alternative aviation fuels under CORSIA.












(9)


In order to ensure transparency, Member States should transmit relevant data to the ICAO Secretariat following the timelines set out in this Regulation. Specifically, Member States should submit the list of aircraft operators they administer as well as the list of verifiers that obtained CORSIA accreditation from the national accreditation body in that Member State. Additionally, for the purpose of calculation of the annual sector growth factor by the ICAO Secretariat, Member States should transmit verified emissions data concerning all international flights of aircraft operators they administer. That reporting does not define the volume of emissions used for the calculation of CORSIA offsetting requirements pursuant to Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) 2024/1879 (7). Furthermore, at the end of each CORSIA period, Member States should also transmit relevant verified data to the ICAO Secretariat concerning emissions unit cancellation completed by aircraft operators they administer.












(10)


To calculate the final offsetting requirements for the purpose of CORSIA for 2024 pursuant to Implementing Regulation (EU) 2024/1879, Member States are to take into account any reductions from the CORSIA eligible fuels used in 2024. This Regulation should therefore apply to the emissions and use of CORSIA eligible fuels that have occurred since 1 January 2024.












(11)


In order to ensure the application of the rules laid down in this Regulation in a timely manner, it should enter into force without delay.












(12)


Delegated Regulation (EU) 2019/1603 should therefore be repealed,

4.   The verifier shall ensure that the verification activities performed allow it to conclude on the following objectives:






(a)


the aircraft operator has accurately reported its cancellations of emissions units in accordance with Article 7;










(b)


the reported number of cancelled emissions units is sufficient for meeting the aircraft operator’s total final offsetting requirements notified by Member States in accordance with Article 4(7) of Implementing Regulation (EU) 2024/1879 associated with the relevant CORSIA period, and the aircraft operator can demonstrate sole right of use to such cancelled emissions units;










(c)


the emissions units cancelled by the aircraft operator to meet its final offsetting requirements have not been used by the aircraft operator to offset any other emissions.






5.   The scope of the verification shall reflect the period of time and information covered by the emissions unit cancellation report and the verifier shall confirm that the cancelled emissions units used to meet the aircraft operator’s final offsetting requirements have not been used to offset any other emissions.


6.   When carrying out the verification, verifiers shall not rely on sampling.


7.   Where verifiers carry out solely the verification of the emissions unit cancellation report, they may decide not to carry out a site visit. That decision shall be based on the outcome of the risk analysis and after determining that all relevant data can be remotely accessed.
