International Trade Week - Carbon Border Adjustment Mechanism (CBAM)

The EU’s Carbon Border Adjustment Mechanism will be phased in from 1 October 2023. It is the EU’s flagship measure to deal with carbon leakage - the outsourcing of production or supply chains to states where weaker environmental or climate regulations are in place. When fully in place from January 2026 the system will impose charges on goods which originate from sources which do not operate equivalent climate regulations.

This webinar will discuss the key top level requirements for producer companies outside the EU complying with the new rules on their goods exports to the EU from this autumn. Knowledge and having compliance processes in place will be critical for producers of goods in scope of CBAM in protecting their sales to EU customers.
