From 1 January 2027, the UK Carbon Border Adjustment Mechanism (CBAM) will introduce a carbon price on certain emissions-intensive goods imported into the UK from the aluminium, cement, fertiliser, hydrogen, and iron and steel sectors.
For businesses importing goods within scope, CBAM represents more than a regulatory reporting obligation. It has implications for procurement decisions, supplier relationships, contractual arrangements, financial planning and supply-chain strategy.
Alinea Customs has developed a UK CBAM calculator to help businesses estimate their potential Carbon Border Adjustment Mechanism (CBAM) liabilities.
