| dc.description.abstract | This research investigates how the Carbon Border Adjustment Mechanism (CBAM) will impact Thailand's exports of steel and iron to the European Union (EU). The European Green Deal (EGD) is the European Commission's policy that aims to promote a green transition, along with the plan to make Europe the first continent to be climate neutral by 2050. This includes the sought-after Carbon Border Adjustment Mechanism (CBAM), which levies tariffs on carbon-importing goods to the EU. This research (1) evaluate how CBAM would affect Thailand's exports of steel and iron to the EU (2) explore the perceptions and preparedness of Thai export firms regarding CBAM (3) provide policy recommendations to mitigate adverse effects and leverage potential opportunities for Thailand. The study identifies concerns regarding cost rise and competitive loss based on semi-structured interviews with ten Thai export firms. The ten companies interviewed are located in various industrial regions of Thailand, including Bangkok, Samut Prakan, and Chonburi. It has also indicated that Thai manufacturers should embrace environmentally friendly production practices to manage these impacts effectively. The study also suggests that Thai policymakers should ensure that the CBAM legislation is accompanied by viable instrumental and technical support to reduce the initial cost borne by iron and steel traders in Thailand. Exporters must embrace innovations and improve their energy systems so that their products remain relevant in the EU region. Legal specifications and adequate communication systems with exporting entities and EU institutions are essential in managing CBAM provisions to sustain access to the market. The findings from the interviews revealed that Thai firms are concerned about the increased costs and potential competitive disadvantages. The companies expressed the need for technical assistance and clear communication to mitigate these impacts. | |
