CBAM Authorized Declarant – support in the registration process

CBAM Authorized Declarant

Due to the entry into force of the CBAM regulation, importers of goods covered by the CO2 border adjustment mechanism are required to obtain the status of CBAM Authorized Declarant. Our service includes comprehensive support in this process, providing professional assistance at every stage of the registration process.

To whom does the CBAM regulation apply?

The regulation applies to all importers of goods listed in Annex I to Regulation (EU) 2023/956 who wish to import these goods into the customs territory of the European Union. These include importers of steel, iron and aluminium products, electricity, hydrogen, cement and fertilisers. From 2026, only authorised CBAM declarants will be entitled to import CBAM goods.
