Understanding the new EU regulation
The European Comission published and put into force the Carbon Border Adjustment Mechanism (CBAM) in May 2023. The aim of the CBAM is to equalize the CO2 price paid by European producers, thus counteracting the relocation of companies and emissions. Initially, this concerns imports of cement, iron and steel, aluminium, fertilisers, electricity and hydrogen.

What does this mean for my company?
EU companies importing cement, iron and steel, aluminium, fertilisers, electricity or hydrogen from non-EU countries are obliged to comply with the CBAM regulation as of 1 October 2023:
Emission Measurement
Based on the imported goods, companies, together with their suppliers, are required to measure the carbon emissions during the production process.
Import Reporting
Companies need to regularly report on their imported relevant goods, along with detailed data on the non-EU partner they are purchasing from.
Certificate Purchase and Reporting
To encourage cleaner industrial production in non-EU countries, from 2026 onwards EU companies need to purchase CBAM certificates to offset the carbon price that would have been paid for the production of the imported goods in the EU.
