Taiwan's Minister of the Ministry of Environment Dr. Chi-Ming Peng visited the EU on Feb. 21st for in-depth discussions on CBAM, confirming that SMEs in Taiwan can apply simplified carbon emission formulas and de minimis exemptions. With annual imports under 50 tons fully exempt, approximately 2,600 Taiwanese SMEs exporting to Europe will benefit, significantly easing administrative burdens.
Presenting on "Taiwan Green Strategy," the minister outlined net-zero pathways, carbon fee mechanisms, and climate governance plans. The EU praised Taiwan's carbon fee deductions covering Scope 2 emissions. Discussions focused on three key issues: carbon price deduction calculations and certification, mutual verifier recognition, and technical exchanges. The EU revealed that multiple countries have complained about high verifier administrative costs and is amending regulations to include mutual recognition provisions, potentially validating Taiwan certificates.
Taiwan ranks 13th among the EU's top 20 CBAM product import sources during the transition period, with 3.74 million metric tons mainly being steel products including screws, fasteners, stainless steel, and carbon steel. The Climate Agency noted Taiwan's carbon fees are CBAM-recognized but awaits EU’s deduction formulas, urging clearer calculation methods and proof requirements. The minister emphasized Taiwan's precision manufacturing and urban mining recycling strengths, positioning it as a "global green solution" to deepen Taiwan-EU climate collaboration.
