Regulation: neighbouring container transhipment ports according to the ETS Directive

At the end of October the European Commission published the Implementing Regulation identifying neighbouring container transhipment ports according to the ETS Directive. The list remains unchanged compared to the previous draft issued mid-August, with Tanger Med (Morocco) and East Port Said (Egypt) which will be excluded from the definition of port of call in the ETS maritime, in order to avoid carriers’ evasion strategies from paying ETS allowances.
