The European Union’s (EU) Carbon Border Adjustment Mechanism (CBAM) introduces compliance requirements for importers bringing certain goods into the EU. As part of this process, UK exporters must provide accurate emissions data to their EU customers.
CBAM applies to carbon-intensive sectors, including:
• Cement
• Iron & steel
• Aluminium
• Fertilisers
• Electricity
• Hydrogen
Now that CBAM has entered its Definitive Regime (from 1 January 2026), EU importers are subject to financial liability linked to the embedded emissions of imported goods. As a result, UK businesses must be prepared to accurately calculate and report emissions data to support their EU customers’ compliance obligations.
To maintain a competitive edge and avoid trade disruptions, UK businesses must be prepared to accurately calculate and report emissions data associated with their exports.
