The emission of noxious substances from combustion of marine fuels is restricted in respect of the atmosphere protection and International Maritime Organization (IMO) regulations. The IMO requirements were determined by time of being in force. The first tier started in 2000 year, the second in 2011, the third will be valid from 2016 and it will be a necessity to comply those last requirements. In case of NOx - between the first and second tier the emission was limited 20%, while the next step will be limited 80% of the first. This is a very great challenge; because in nowadays marine diesel engines and marine heavy and diesel oils generally applied, it would seem impossible comply those requirements. It was formed environmental controlled areas of NOx emission (ECA) and they will extend. It was determined controlled areas of SOx (SECA). Governments of some countries (USA, Norway) were introduced on own territorial waters the requirements of NOx and SOx emission. In case of exceeding the limits (or a lack of the proper certificate) it was imposed an ecological charge (a form of tax). In Norway from this charge it was created a fund. It is possible to receive a subvention for some actions like an exchange of marine equipment for new one with proper certificate. In the paper it was given an attention to the waiting new challenges for engine producers and ship-owners of fulfilling tier 3 standards or search new substitute solutions.
