3- Method of determining greenhouse gas emission quotas
a- Greenhouse gas emission quotas are determined based on the level of greenhouse gas emissions per unit of product; growth targets of the sector; greenhouse gas emission reduction targets of the sector and facility according to the production and business plan; emission reduction potential of the facility; technical, technological and financial capacity of the facility in implementing greenhouse gas emission reduction.
The method for determining greenhouse gas emission quotas is specified in detail in Method 01 of Appendix I issued with this Decree.
b- Sector management ministries shall apply the method specified in Point a above to determine the proposed greenhouse gas emission quotas to be allocated to establishments.
The establishments allocated quotas are allowed to exchange greenhouse gas emission quotas and carbon credits on the Carbon Exchange according to the roadmap specified in Article 17 of this Decree.
The cost of implementing greenhouse gas emission quota allocation is arranged from the state budget according to the state budget management decentralization.
Amending regulations on exchange and transfer of greenhouse gas emission quotas
In addition, Decree 119/2025/ND-CP also amends Article 19 on exchanging, borrowing, paying back, transferring, and offsetting greenhouse gas emission quotas and carbon credits:
Greenhouse gas emission quotas and carbon credits allowed to be exchanged on the Carbon Exchange include: Greenhouse gas emission quotas specified in Article 12 of this Decree. A greenhouse gas emission quota unit represents the emission right equal to 01 ton of CO2 or 01 ton of CO2 equivalent; carbon credits are granted for greenhouse gas emission reduction results from January 1, 2021 of programs and projects under the mechanism specified in Article 20 of this Decree and the mechanism specified in Point a, Point b, Clause 1, Article 20a of this Decree.
The exchange of greenhouse gas emission allowances is carried out on the Carbon Exchange in accordance with the law on the Carbon Exchange.
Pay greenhouse gas emission quota
For each allocation period, the facility is responsible for returning the greenhouse gas emission quota to the State. The amount of greenhouse gas emission quota returned must be at least equal to the greenhouse gas inventory results from direct emission sources during the allocation period of the facility minus the amount of offset carbon credits.
The facility shall self-pay the greenhouse gas emission quota to the National Registration System before December 31 of the year following the allocated period.
The State encourages establishments to voluntarily pay greenhouse gas emission quotas that are greater than the results of greenhouse gas inventories from direct emission sources during the allocated period, contributing to the implementation of the national greenhouse gas emission reduction target.
Facilities that fail to fully pay their greenhouse gas emission quotas will be subject to penalties in accordance with the law on administrative penalties for environmental protection violations. At the same time, the remaining amount of greenhouse gas emission quotas will be deducted from the facility's allocated quota for the next period.
Greenhouse gas emission quota transfer
During the period up to 2030, the facility can transfer the unused greenhouse gas emission allowance after completing the repayment of the current period to the next period. The amount of transferred allowance is used for exchange.
The facility shall self-transfer the greenhouse gas emission quota on the National Registration System after returning the greenhouse gas emission quota of the allocated period.
After 30 days from the deadline for returning the greenhouse gas emission quotas of the allocated period, the Ministry of Agriculture and Environment shall cancel the quotas of the previously allocated periods that have not been transferred or/and returned by the facility on the National Registration System, and at the same time send and update data to the Carbon Trading Platform operators.
This Decree comes into force from August 1, 2025.
