This Updated Nationally Determined Contribution for Montenegro (updated in 2025) consists of three parts: 1) Summary of procedural developments, 2) Summary of the Montenegro’s updated Nationally Determined Contribution (NDC) and 3) the Information provided to facilitate Clarity, Transparency and Understanding (ICTU) of the NDC. Montenegro submitted their intended nationally determined contribution (INDC) in September 2015, in line with decisions taken at the 20th session of the Conference of the Parties (COP) in Lima. The Montenegro’s INDC became its NDC when it ratified the Paris Agreement on December 2017, with a target of 30% economy-wide reduction of greenhouse gas emissions - excluding the land use, land use change and forestry (LULUCF) sector - by 2030, compared to 1990 levels. In 2021, the Montenegro endorsed a new and more ambitious target for 2030 of at least 35% economy-wide reduction of greenhouse gas emissions - excluding the LULUCF sector - and submitted it to the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC) Secretariat as an updated and enhanced NDC on 15 June 20211. With this submission, Montenegro updates information on its NDC with a more ambitious multi-year target for the timeframe 2025-2035 and a full coverage of the economy through the inclusion of the LULUCF sector.
