CBAM data: dependable mappings instead of scattered spreadsheets.

Match import data and supplier evidence for a clarified CBAM process. Make missing information and data versions visible.

Start with a clarified business scope

The European Commission describes the definitive phase of CBAM as beginning on 1 January 2026. Whether and which requirements apply to a company must be established from its specific imports and role. Importing a product alone does not define a complete technical assignment.

A data pilot therefore identifies one product group, one period and a responsible specialist team. That team specifies which information and evidence the subsequent process needs.

Match each import to its evidence

A supplier document may cover several installations, periods or products. Matching it to a specific import requires traceable rules. Units and the origin of every value matter just as much. A large collection of spreadsheets is useful only if these relationships remain intact.

Unknown or contradictory details belong in a clarification list. Technical checks can identify missing data and discrepancies in totals. They do not replace a specialist emissions assessment and must not invent unsupported values.

Review the working dataset together

Compare a few import transactions completely against their sources. The specialist team checks whether the mapping and export are sufficient for the next step. Versioned datasets distinguish a later correction from the original state.

After acceptance, recurring preparation can be automated. Submissions to authorities and further specialist steps retain clearly assigned responsibilities. The software supports a traceable process without pre-empting decisions about customs law or emissions evidence.

What does this look like in your work?
