4. Question
A carbon border tax is a tax on imported goods to equalize the cost of carbon emissions between domestic and foreign producers. It’s a tax on carbon emissions imposed on imported goods from countries with less strict climate policies.
The EU’s plan to collect a carbon border tax with effect from January 1, 2026, could raise the cost of India’s exports, according to experts seized on the matter. Beginning October, 2023, Indian exporters are supposed to submit documents on their processes roughly every two months. The EU will soon have ‘verifiers’ to check submissions from Indian exporters on their processes. Currently, this applies to steel, aluminum, cement, fertilizer, hydrogen and electricity, but it will be expanded to all imports into the EU in the future.
