For suppliers

For producers outside the EU: why your EU customer asks for emissions data

Since 1 January 2026 your EU customers pay CBAM on the emissions embedded in steel, aluminium, cement and fertilisers. If you do not provide verified data, they must use EU default values with a mark-up of 10% (2026), 20% (2027) and 30% (from 2028). That makes your products more expensive than those of competitors who provide data. Verified CBAM data works like an ISO certificate: EU buyers increasingly choose suppliers who have it.

What we ask for

  • Installation data: name, address, country, UN/LOCODE, coordinates of the main emission source, operator, CBAM Registry operator ID (if any).
  • For each CN code supplied: production route, specific direct and indirect embedded emissions (t CO₂e/t), electricity consumption (MWh/t) and emission factor used.
  • Precursors used (CN code, quantity per tonne, country of production, embedded emissions), where known.
  • Carbon price actually paid in your country, with evidence.
  • The verification report of an accredited verifier, or the planned verification date.

How it works for you

  1. You receive the request in your language (中文, Türkçe or English).

  2. You fill in the European Commission’s official Communication template (or our simplified sheet to start).

  3. If you are not verified yet: verification is done by an accredited CBAM verifier you choose, much like an ISO audit. The first verification includes a site visit.

  4. You send the verification report. Your customer uses it in the CBAM declaration due 30.09.2027.

Confidentiality

We ask only for what the CBAM rules require – no recipes, no cost data. Your data is used only for your customer’s CBAM compliance. An NDA is available on request.

CBAM Registry for operators

Producers can also register in the EU CBAM Registry and share their verified data with declarants directly. We can explain how.
