CBAM Compliance Is Complex.
Your API Shouldn't Be.

📋

Annual Declarations

From 2026, importers must file annual CBAM declarations by September 30, 2027. Errors cost certificates.

📊

Volatile Carbon Prices

EU ETS prices shift quarterly. Your cost exposure changes every 3 months — manual tracking is unsustainable.

⚖️

Default Value Penalties

Without verified emissions data, regulators apply a 10% markup (rising to 30% by 2028) on default values.

The Solution

One API call. Accurate liability, deduction, and risk data — built on the official EU ETS quarterly auction price and Regulation (EU) 2025/2621 coefficients.

01

Send Your Import Data

Pass your CN codes, net mass, actual specific emissions, and any carbon price paid abroad.
