Full enforcement is live — actual certificate purchase and annual surrender have begun, and default values are no longer accepted. We deliver verified embedded-emissions data per CN code, ready for your EU importer to file quarterly declarations without margin leakage.
Fixed-scope, fixed-price. €6,500 — final quote confirmed after a free scoping call.
A verified emissions baseline at the installation level — the foundation every CN-code calculation and importer declaration builds on.
Actual verified data, not default values — the difference between predictable CBAM costs and margin leakage on every shipment.
We manage the process with your verifier of choice — TÜV, DNV or SGS — so your data holds up under independent review.
A CBAM communication template your EU importer can use directly for quarterly declarations, with no back-and-forth on missing data.
A forward view of certificate costs as the phase-in progresses, so pricing and contract decisions aren't made blind.

First annual CBAM declaration is due 30 June 2026. Quarterly transitional reports have been required since October 2023 — if you're still on default values, this is the point where that starts costing more, not less.

Quarterly transitional reports have been required since October 2023. Financial obligations — certificate purchase and annual surrender — began January 2026, and the first full annual CBAM declaration is due 30 June 2026.
Cement, iron & steel, aluminium, fertilisers, hydrogen and electricity, with possible expansion to downstream products and textiles from 2028.
Default values are no longer accepted under the definitive period. Verified actual embedded-emissions data per CN code is now required — using defaults where actual data is available typically results in higher CBAM certificate costs, not lower compliance burden.
Our standard CBAM Embedded Emissions Verification engagement starts at €6,500, covering an installation-level Scope 1+2 inventory, per-CN-code emissions calculation, third-party verifier coordination, and an EU importer handover pack. Final scope is confirmed after a free scoping call.
