The reattribution decision shall be made within six months following the request by the aviation fuel supplier, shall be subject to the agreement of the competent authorities of the Member State of reattribution and shall be transmitted without undue delay to the Agency and the Commission. It shall apply from the beginning of the reporting period following the date of adoption of that decision.
Article 12
Enforcement
By way of derogation from the first subparagraph, the following rules shall apply to synthetic aviation fuels for the periods from 1 January 2030 until 31 December 2031 and from 1 January 2032 until 31 December 2034:
any aviation fuel supplier which has accumulated a shortfall from the obligation laid down in Article 4 relating to the average shares of synthetic aviation fuels in the period from 1 January 2030 until 31 December 2031, shall supply the market before the end of the period from 1 January 2032 until 31 December 2034 with a quantity of synthetic aviation fuel equal to that shortfall, in addition to the obligations of that period; and
any aviation fuel supplier which has accumulated a shortfall from the obligation laid down in Article 4 relating to the average shares of synthetic aviation fuels in the period from 1 January 2032 until 31 December 2034, shall supply the market in the subsequent reporting period with a quantity of synthetic aviation fuel equal to that shortfall, additional to their reporting period obligation.
Fulfilling the obligations referred to in the first and second subparagraphs of this paragraph shall not exonerate the aviation fuel supplier from the obligation to pay the fines laid down in paragraphs 4 and 5.
Where such revenues are allocated to the general budget of a Member State, a Member State shall be deemed to have complied with the first subparagraph, if it implements financial support policies to support research and innovation projects in the field of SAF, the production of SAF or policies that support mechanisms allowing the price differences between SAF and conventional aviation fuels to be bridged, which have a value equivalent or higher to the revenues generated from fines.
By 25 September 2026, and every five years thereafter, Member States shall make public a report on the use made of the aggregated revenues generated from the fines, and information on the level of expenditure allocated to research and innovation projects in the field of SAF, the production of SAF or policies that support mechanisms allowing the price differences between SAF and conventional aviation fuels to be bridged.
Article 13
Data collection and publication
The Agency shall publish every year a technical report on the basis of the reports referred to in Articles 7, 8 and 10 and forward it to the European Parliament and to the Council. That report shall contain at least the following information:

the state of advancement of projects at Union airports pursuing initiatives referred to in Article 7(3).
Article 14
Environmental Labelling Scheme
Aircraft operators may request the issuance of labels under this Article also for their flights covered by this Regulation arriving at Union airports. Where an aircraft operator requests the issuance of a label under this subparagraph, it shall request such a label for all its flights arriving at Union airports.
Labels issued pursuant to this Article shall consist of the following information:
the expected carbon footprint per passenger, expressed in metrics such as in kilograms of CO2 per passenger, for the period of validity of the label;
the expected CO2 efficiency per kilometre, expressed in metrics such as in grams of CO2 per passenger per kilometre, for the period of validity of the label.
The expected carbon footprint per passenger and the expected CO2 efficiency per kilometre of a flight shall be determined by the Agency on the basis of a standardised and science-based methodology and the information from the aircraft operators concerning all or some of the following factors:
the types of aircraft, average number of passengers and freight loads supplemented when needed with estimations of those factors, such as the average load factors for the specified route for a given time period; and
the performance of the fuel used on the flights carried out by the aircraft operator based on the fuel uptake and using metrics such as the total amount of SAF uplifted, the percentage over the total fuel uptake, the quality and origin, the composition and the lifecycle emissions from fuel use calculated for the flight.
The Agency may require the aircraft operator to provide additional information necessary for the issuance of the label.
Where the aircraft operator does not submit all the information necessary for the Agency to issue the requested label, the Agency shall reject the request.
An appeal may be brought by the aircraft operator against decisions of the Agency taken pursuant to this paragraph and paragraph 7 of this Article. Such appeal shall be filed to the Board of Appeal referred to in Article 105 of Regulation (EU) 2018/1139 of the European Parliament and of the Council ( 7 ) within 10 days of notification of the decision. Articles 106 and 107, Article 108(2) and (3), and Articles 111, 112, 113 and 114 of Regulation (EU) 2018/1139 shall apply. Any decision taken by the Agency pursuant to this paragraph shall be taken without undue delay.
The aircraft operator shall without any delay adjust the display of the label accordingly.
In order to ensure the uniform implementation and compliance with the rules set out in this Article, the Commission shall adopt by 1 January 2025 implementing acts laying down detailed provisions concerning:
the standardised and science-based methodology referred to in paragraph 4, based on the best available scientific data, in particular the data provided by the Agency and including the methodology for using estimations referred to in paragraph 4, point (a);
the procedure through which aircraft operators are to provide the Agency with the relevant information for the issuance of a label, and the procedure for the Agency to issue that label, including the time-limit by which the Agency is to take a decision pursuant to paragraph 6;
the duration of the validity of labels issued pursuant to this Article, not exceeding one year;
the conditions under which the Agency is to carry out the review referred to in paragraph 7;
the procedure mentioned in paragraph 7 through which the Agency can either revoke existing labels or issue a new label;
the templates for displaying labels issued pursuant to this Article;
ensuring an easy access to all issued labels in machine-readable format;
the possibility and conditions under which aircraft operators may display, without using a label under this Article, any environmental performance information similar to the one referred to in paragraph 3 for flights departing from Union airports.
Those implementing acts shall be adopted in accordance with the examination procedure referred to in Article 16(3).
Article 15
Flexibility mechanisms
Such a possible system, incorporating elements of a book and claim scheme, could enable aircraft operators or fuel suppliers, or both, to purchase SAF through contractual arrangements with aviation fuel suppliers and to claim the use of SAF at Union airports.
The Commission shall present a report to the European Parliament and to the Council setting out the main findings of the evaluation carried out pursuant to this paragraph and accompanied, where appropriate, by a legislative proposal.
Article 16
Committee procedure
Article 17
Reports and review
As far as possible, the report shall include information on the policy developments in relevant third countries, including in the context of their multilateral and bilateral agreements with the Union or with the Union and its Member States, as well as on the development of a potential policy framework for supply and uplift of SAF at ICAO level.
The report shall assess the competitiveness of Union air carriers and airport hubs compared with their competitors in relevant third countries, as well as possible rerouting, notably through a shift in traffic towards airport hubs in third countries, leading to carbon leakage. In particular, in the absence of a mandatory scheme at international level on the use of SAF for international flights with a similar level of ambition as the requirements laid down in this Regulation or of mechanisms developed at international level enabling the risk of carbon leakage and the distortion of competition for international aviation to be avoided, the Commission shall, by 31 December 2026, where appropriate, consider targeted mechanisms that aim to prevent those effects, including, if appropriate, the extension to international aviation of the carbon border adjustment mechanism established by Regulation (EU) 2023/956 of the European Parliament and of the Council ( 8 ), as well as other types of measures taking into account the fact that the final destination of the flight is located outside the territory of the Union.
As part of the first report or earlier as a stand alone report presented to the European Parliament and to the Council, the Commission shall assess possible measures to optimise the fuel content of aviation fuels.
Article 18
Entry into force
This Regulation shall enter into force on the twentieth day following that of its publication in the Official Journal of the European Union.
It shall apply from 1 January 2024.
However, Articles 4, 5, 6, 8 and 10 shall apply from 1 January 2025.
This Regulation shall be binding in its entirety and directly applicable in all Member States.
