DO YOU IMPORT CBAM-COVERED PRODUCTS INTO THE EUROPEAN UNION FROM THIRD COUNTRIES AND WANT TO REMAIN COMPLIANT WITH THE CARBON TAX? WE MANAGE ALL YOUR CBAM OBLIGATIONS FOR YOU.
Importers must declare and pay for the embedded carbon emissions of their goods, based on a carbon price equivalent to EU standards.By enforcing a carbon price on imports, CBAM helps to:
The declaration is mandatory when the goods:
CBAM concerns exclusively imports from a third country. Intra-EU trade is not concerned.
The obligation falls to: The importer established in the EU Or their indirect representative In other words, the company that releases the goods for free circulation must ensure CBAM compliance.
Transitional phase (2023-2025)
At this stage, CBAM applies in particular to:
The CBAM framework, also referred to as the carbon border tax, is subject to frequent changes, which can make it challenging to determine the goods in scope and the relevant exemptions. Managing the transition from the transitional phase to the definitive phase requires continuous oversight.
Securing accurate emissions data from non-EU suppliers is often complicated. Without reliable data, you risk increased costs and inaccuracies in your declarations.
CBAM involves customs, purchasing, finance and CSR. Without a defined process, the risks of errors and delays escalate quickly.
Starting in 2026, the mandatory acquisition of CBAM certificates exposes your company to fluctuations in the European carbon market and may impact your import costs.
In the event of non-compliance, you may face fines, mandatory corrective measures, and even the suspension of your imports.
CBAM requires you to ensure the secure exchange of carbon data and adapt your contracts to include provisions on emissions.
We quickly determine if your products are covered and help you understand your exact obligations in line with your import flows.
We take care of preparing and submitting your declarations, both during the transitional phase and in the definitive phase as of 2026.
