CBAM Compliance Services: Why Global Exporters Must Act Now
The EU’s Carbon Border Adjustment Mechanism (CBAM) is shifting the rules of
international trade. If you export to the EU, your embedded carbon emissions are now a
matter of cost, compliance, and customer trust.
What Is CBAM?
CBAM ensures imported goods face the same carbon costs as EU-produced goods. As of
October 2023, companies must report emissions on six covered sectors. From January In
2026, they’ll pay a carbon price through CBAM certificates.
This directly impacts exporters in sectors such as:
- Iron and steel
- Cement
- Aluminum
- Fertilizers
- Electricity
- Hydrogen
Textiles, chemicals, and plastics are expected to follow, making CBAM increasingly
relevant for fashion and garment manufacturers, especially in Turkey, Bangladesh, Egypt,
and Vietnam.
