Carbon Border Adjustment Mechanism: extension of its scope to downstream goods and anti-circumvention measures
15 September 2026 | Plenary sent the file back to committee
What's next: The committee will keep working on the text — typically to continue negotiations — before it returns to plenary. No deadline applies.
Summary: The proposal aims to expand a carbon pricing system at the border to cover products made from materials that have already been subject to carbon charges, preventing companies from avoiding the rules by shifting production stages. It also seeks to introduce measures to stop businesses from circumventing the system through indirect routes or loopholes.
