CBAM · EU carbon border tax
Your real emissions,
not the penalty figure.
Since January 2026, EU importers of steel, aluminium, fertilisers and cement pay for the carbon in what they buy. Without verified data from your plant, they must use EU default values, set from the worst exporting countries and marked up every year. We help your plant report its real numbers.
The problem
- EU buyers now ask suppliers for verified emissions data
- Default values can be several times higher than a plant's real emissions
- The cost share rises every year until 2034
- The EU method and forms are new, detailed and in English only
What we do
- Collect your energy, materials and production data, in Arabic, Russian or English
- Check every figure and chase what is missing or inconsistent
- Calculate emissions per product with the EU method
- Prepare the monitoring plan, emissions report and importer summary
- Answer your verifier's questions until the report is accepted
How it works
Free cost estimate
From your product type and EU export volume, we estimate your CBAM cost at default values versus likely real values. One page, in writing.
Data in, by checklist
One contact at your plant sends 12 months of invoices, meter readings and production records through a simple upload checklist. No site visit from us.
Verifier ready file
We deliver the calculations and EU documents, then support you through verification by an accredited verifier of your choice.
Who it is for
Small and medium producers in Egypt, the Gulf, North Africa, Turkey, Ukraine and Central Asia that export iron and steel, aluminium, fertilisers or cement to the EU. Also EU importers who need data from many suppliers, and local consultancies that need extra hands.
Questions
Are you a CBAM verifier?
No. Verification must be done by an independent verifier accredited in the EU. We prepare your data and documents and work with the verifier you choose, so the two roles stay separate.
When is the deadline?
The first annual CBAM declaration for 2026 imports is due on 30 September 2027. Verified plant data should be ready before that, and verifiers are few, so starting early matters.
What if we skip it?
Your EU buyer then uses EU default values, which are usually far higher than real emissions. Buyers increasingly prefer suppliers with verified data.
Is our data safe?
We sign an NDA before receiving anything, use your data only for your report, and delete working copies after delivery if you ask.
Which languages?
Arabic, Russian, English and Spanish.
