CBAM Compliance Support
Overview
​
The era of voluntary carbon reporting is over. In 2026, carbon is a cost of trade.​
Today, every shipment of carbon-intensive goods entering the European Union including steel, aluminum, cement, and fertilizers, must carry a verified carbon price. If you export these products, your EU buyers now face significant financial adjustments based on the "embedded emissions" of your goods.
​
We help Indian manufacturers navigate this complex regulatory landscape. We ensure your data is accurate, your emissions are minimized, and your products remain the preferred choice for EU importers who are now factoring carbon costs into every procurement decision.
The 2026 Reality: Why Accuracy Matters Now
​
With the start of the definitive CBAM regime on January 1, 2026, the stakes have changed:
​
-
Mandatory Verification: All emissions data must now be verified by an EU-accredited independent verifier.
-
Avoid High Default Values: If you fail to provide actual emissions data, the EU applies "default values" that are intentionally set high, often 30–80% higher than actuals making your products significantly more expensive for your customers.
-
Pricing Pressure: Importers may demand price cuts of 15–22% to offset their carbon certificate costs if your emissions are high.
-
Authorization Requirement: Importers must be "Authorized CBAM Declarants" to bring in goods above the 50-tonne threshold.
Our CBAM Compliance Services
​
We provide the technical expertise to ensure your exports move across borders without delays or unexpected taxes:
​
-
Specific Embedded Emissions (SEE) Calculation: We move beyond generic estimates to calculate the exact carbon intensity per SKU (Stock Keeping Unit) based on your plant’s actual energy use and raw material inputs.
-
EU-Ready Data Packs: We prepare the standardized XML and Excel data sets required by EU importers for their quarterly declarations, ensuring 100% alignment with EU methodologies.
-
Supply Chain Carbon Mapping: We track emissions from your "precursors" (raw materials like scrap metal or pig iron) to give you a complete, auditable picture of your product’s carbon footprint.
-
CBAM Shadow Pricing: We help you calculate your "carbon tax liability" in advance so you can factor it into your export pricing strategies and contract negotiations.
-
Verification Coordination: We act as your liaison with accredited third-party verifiers to ensure your data passes the mandatory audits required for 2026 compliance.
