An operator may pass verified emissions and carbon-price information not only to an authorised CBAM declarant but to another operator, so verified data can move along the supply chain.
Operators of installations in third countries registered in the CBAM registry are given a right, and it sits in an act that is partly law and partly a proposal.
Why it matters
The act this comes from is partly law in force and partly a proposal that can still change.
- It is Art. 1(8)(c), replacing the first sentence of Art. 10(7) of Regulation (EU) 2023/956, in the CBAM extension — downstream goods and anti-circumvention. as of 2026-08-14
- The act gives its timing as: applies from 1 January 2028 per Art. 2. as of 2026-08-14
- It names 4 industries by name: Steel, Aluminium, Cement and Chemicals. as of 2026-08-14
- Compliance is checked by none, if it happens. as of 2026-08-14
