Overview
CORSIA is the Carbon Offsetting and Reduction Scheme for International Aviation. International governments have adopted CORSIA to stabilise net CO2 emissions from international aviation from 2021.
If a flight takes off from a UK airport and lands in an airport outside of the European Economic Area (EEA), this flight is subject to CORSIA. Internal flights within the UK are subject to the UK Emissions Trading Scheme (ETS). Flights from the UK to the EEA are currently subject to both the UK ETS and CORSIA.
The purpose of this consultation is to seek views on:
• Proposals to establish a new charging policy for fees and charges associated with the administration of CORSIA for Northern Ireland registered aeroplane operators by NIEA from 1 January 2025.
