Navigating CBAM: Sustainable Imports Made Easy with CUMIC

During the initial EU CBAM reporting period, many importers encountered significant obstacles These challenges stemmed largely from a lack of the necessary data and uncertainties regarding the correct procedures for report completion. As a leader in international steel supply chain services, CUMIC provides essential professional support with comprehensive industry knowledge and consultancy services, helping importers successfully navigate this challenge.

1. Key Challenges in CBAM Reporting

To address current and future CBAM reporting, we face four main challenges:

a) Deciphering the CBAM requirements and submitting the first report within a constrained timeframe.

b) Importers' limited comprehension of the data requirements for CBAM reporting.

c) Poor communication between importers and suppliers leading to misaligned data.

d) Assisting suppliers with increasingly stringent CBAM data reporting in the latter half of the year.

2. How CUMIC Empowers Steel Importers to Navigate EU CBAM?

CUMIC, as a professional service provider in the international steel trade sector, is at the forefront of responding to the EU CBAM, offering real-time data reporting support alongside our professional consultancy services. For importers and producers who may be facing challenges due to insufficient data, we aid through default values to facilitate their reporting process. Similarly, for suppliers equipped with the necessary data, we help in accurately filling out emission forms. This dual strategy ensures that ensuring that regardless of the level of data completeness, importers can comply with the regulations and successfully complete their reporting process.

Our services extend beyond reporting assistance. We take pride in keeping our clients informed about the latest developments in the EU CBAM policy, helping importers understand and adapt to changing EU trade policies and ensuring their operations comply with new regulations. With our professional guidance, many importers have successfully completed their initial reports, and we're actively helping more businesses prepare for and improve their reporting for the third quarter and beyond.
