CBAM for iron & steel from India
Research EU CBAM for iron & steel imported from India. Start with the exact CN code, then verify the emissions input used for the calculation.
For India-origin supply chains, connect supplier emissions evidence to the relevant installation, production route and imported goods.
Use the exact iron or steel CN classification because the CBAM scope includes broad material coverage as well as selected downstream products.
Search the current CBAM scope dataset.
2. Check emissions data →Use source-linked definitive-period values where permitted.
3. Estimate cost →Combine emissions with the applicable certificate price.

CBAM FAQ
How do I check iron & steel from India for CBAM?
Start with the exact EU CN classification, then confirm whether that code falls within the current CBAM scope before selecting emissions inputs.
Does origin in India change whether the product is covered?
Country of origin alone does not determine product scope. Classification comes first, followed by the applicable emissions and transaction rules.
Can I use a default emissions value?
Use a default value only where the current definitive-period rules allow it and match the correct legal annex, product, origin and production-route conditions.
The European Commission published corrected definitive-period default values in August 2026 following Implementing Regulation (EU) 2026/1740. Numeric country/product values on CBAMSearch will be exposed only after validation against the corrected dataset.
