ETS Surcharge Update – Effective 1st January 2026
From 1st January 2026, the EU Emissions Trading System (ETS) surcharge for maritime transport will move to 100% of the full tariff, marking the final stage of the phased introduction set out by the European Union.
The ETS surcharge was first introduced at 40% of the full tariff in 2024, and increased to 70% in 2025. This next step reflects the EU’s commitment to reducing carbon emissions across the transport sector and encouraging more sustainable shipping practices.
At Baku GLS, we continue to work closely with our ferry and shipping partners to monitor these adjustments and keep customers informed of any confirmed rate changes or carrier updates.
