The issue
The EU carbon border mechanism covers specified goods, not every import. For covered products, emissions information can affect obligations and costs.
What to prepare
Check code, origin, quantity, period and possible exemptions against current official guidance. Allocate collection and verification of manufacturer data. A general environmental statement is not a substitute for the required evidence.
General information, not advice on an individual case. Sources consulted on 22 October 2026: check updates before acting. The overall portal review is ongoing. This note does not certify a complete check of every page.
A compliant product can still lack mandatory information or use the wrong language. Requirements and responsibilities depend on category and destination market.
