CBAM data.
From installation to shipment.
Carbon CBAM helps manufacturers and exporters prepare structured, traceable, and verifiable embedded emissions data for the European importer.
The definitive CBAM regime has applied since January 1, 2026
CBAM DATA CHAIN
READY · 76%
01 Installation boundaries and processes
02 Calculation external API core
03 Shipment importer data package
CBAM-2026.08 calculation version methodology and factors locked
The platform prepares exporter data. Filing the declaration and surrendering certificates are performed by the authorized CBAM declarant in the EU.
CBAM news
Operational update · CN code list unchanged
Verifiers gain access to the CBAM Registry
The European Commission has published the registration procedure for accredited verifiers. The update sets out access procedures, registration timelines, and preparation of verification reports for actual emissions.
Who is affected: verifiers, accreditation bodies and EU competent authorities, non-EU manufacturers, and importers using actual emissions values.
Accredited verifiers gain access to the CBAM Registry.
The registry will support issuance of reports for the first annual declaration covering 2026.
01 · Purpose
One digital trail
for every result
The source document, measurement, factor, and formula version are linked to the final value. This simplifies exchange with the importer, internal control, and independent verification.
Collect
Production volumes, fuel, electricity, raw materials, precursors, and supporting documents.
Calculate
Transfer data to an independent calculation core and preserve the result version.
Validate
Identify gaps, deviations, incorrect units, and unverified values.
Share
Create a controlled information package for the importer and verifier.
02 · Workflow
Six steps
without breaking the data chain
The process follows the logic of the definitive CBAM regime while remaining clear for production, ESG, and export teams.
Classify the product
Check the CN code, CBAM sector, country of origin, and shipment parameters.
Describe the installation
Define installation boundaries, production processes, routes, and precursors.
Collect primary data
Fuel, electricity, raw materials, production output, measurements, and supporting documents.
Calculate emissions
Transfer normalized data to the external calculation core and obtain a versioned result.
