Question

Do Gulf exporters pay for carbon?

Answer

Not domestically — Saudi Arabia, the UAE, Qatar, Oman, Kuwait and Bahrain have no carbon price. But their steel, aluminium and fertilizer exports to the EU pay CBAM at the EU price on a rising share of embedded emissions: 2.5% in 2026 → 100% in 2034.
