CBAM Transitional Registry
Go to the CBAM Transitional Registry
In the CBAM Transitional Registry, importers can submit reports related to the CBAM. Reports are required if you import goods subject to the carbon border adjustment mechanism, i.e. CBAM goods.
The CBAM Transitional Registry is maintained by the EU.
Logging in
If you are the managing director of the company, you can submit the report yourself. Identify yourself with Suomi.fi identification in the CBAM Transitional Registry. You don’t need any mandates. You can also authorise another person to grant mandates to others or to submit the report. If you have a trade name, you must grant a mandate to yourself.
- Use the mandate “Declaring information related to the Carbon Border Adjustment Mechanism.”
- The type of mandate must be a mandate for transactions.
- Where can I see received mandates? (Suomi.fi)
- On the page How to grant mandates, there are instructions for different situations.
- e-Authorizations and more instructions (Suomi.fi)
Please note that if you use the Suomi.fi e-Authorizations when representatives act on behalf of principals, the representative can view all the details of the principal.
To log in, you need an EORI number. Using the service also requires Suomi.fi identification.
