AI: What changed Written by AI from the official text — check the source

The derogation for outermost regions becomes a four-year notification-based regime open to all outermost regions, with a new rule bringing goods later moved to the rest of the customs territory back under CBAM obligations. A single default value is set for all unwrought aluminium, and the scope review adds chemicals and petrochemicals, inward processing and the redirection of revenue to affected sectors. Annexes are amended with new CN codes, a new Annex IIa and a 5-tonne threshold for aluminium products. The other changes are formal: quotation marks and punctuation are corrected and deleted text is removed.
