FAQ
Common questions
What is CBAM?
The EU's Carbon Border Adjustment Mechanism puts a carbon price on the emissions embedded in certain goods imported into the EU: iron and steel, aluminium, cement, fertilisers, electricity and hydrogen.
How is the CBAM cost calculated?
The embedded emissions per tonne of product, times the CBAM certificate price, which follows the EU ETS. The free-allocation adjustment and any carbon price already paid in the country of origin reduce it.
When is the first CBAM declaration due?
The definitive phase began on 1 January 2026. CBAM certificates go on sale on 1 February 2027, and the first declaration is due by 30 September 2027.
What happens without verified data?
EU buyers declare default values with a mark-up for steel, aluminium, cement and hydrogen, which makes your product more expensive to import.
Who files the declaration?
Your EU importer, as the authorised CBAM declarant. Astraa prepares the emissions data and evidence they need from you.
