CN 31055900 (Other mineral or chemical fertilisers containing the two fertilising elements nitrogen and phosphorus (excl. nitrates and phosphates)) is in CBAM scope. The largest current EU supplier is Morocco, at an EU default emission intensity of 0.62 tCO2e per tonne — which becomes 0.68 tCO2e in 2026 with the +10% statutory markup applied. Among CBAM-eligible origins with published EU defaults, the lowest CBAM cost for CN 31055900 is from Israel — saving approximately €381 per 100 t versus the current top supplier Morocco at 2026 markup.
Where every euro goes — CBAM as % of landed cost
For a 100-tonne shipment of CN 31055900 from Morocco, CBAM is 7.8% of every euro you spend importing.
“Landed cost” here = goods value (Eurostat Comext €/kg × 100 t) + CBAM cost (EU 2026 marked-up default × current cert price). Excludes freight, transmission losses, market premiums — those vary per importer. Source data from cbam_comext_partner_facts × cbam_country_defaults × cbam_certificate_prices.
The same shipment costs more every year you delay
EU markup phases +10% (2026) → +20% (2027) → +30% (2028+) per Reg 2025/2621 §3. Each phase increases the default-value cost.

3 questions every CBAM declaration faces
Every PDF you generate for CN 31055900answers all three with cited regulation refs. That's the difference between a calculator output and an audit-ready document.
Show the three cards
Where did the data come from?
Live from Eurostat Comext (DS-045409), refreshed weekly via thecbam-comextcron. Refresh timestamps tracked in cbam_source_runs.
Can it be verified?
Every PDF carries a SHA-256 hash + QR code linking to a public verify page (verification methodology). Auditors trace any figure back to its EU regulation citation in the PDF footer.
What if EU updates the defaults?
Our cron tracks cbam_country_defaults weekly. PDFs you bought stay valid (snapshot of values at purchase time); the calculator uses the latest. PRO subscribers get an audit-log JSON recording every figure's timestamp.
Default Penalty Tax — what verified emissions could save you
Save up to €5,054 per 100 t with supplier-verified emissions at the EU benchmark intensity (Reg 2025/2620 §5.3). You're throwing €5,054to Brussels because you don't have data.
Show the 2-bar comparison
The benchmark is the EU's best-practice reference, not a guarantee. Your supplier's actual verified intensity may be higher or lower than the benchmark — but in most cases it's materially lower than the marked-up default. Default leg uses Morocco's 2026 marked-up value.
What part of the CBAM bill is actually avoidable?
Of the €5,100 CBAM cost on a 100-tonne shipment of CN 31055900 from Morocco, €5,054 (99%) is avoidable with verified supplier data. The rest is the EU benchmark floor — physics, not penalty.
Benchmark floor
€45
Unavoidable. What you pay even if your supplier matches EU best-practice intensity (Reg 2025/2620 §5.3 benchmark = 0.01 tCO₂e/t).
Data-availability gap
€5,004
Avoidable if your supplier's actual intensity is below the EU default (0.67 tCO₂e/t). Verified data beating default closes this gap.
Markup penalty
€50
Avoidable by getting any verified data — Reg 2025/2621 §3's +10/+20/+30% statutory uplift only applies to defaults, not verified emissions.
The action: get one document from your supplier — a verifier-stamped emission statement per Reg 2025/2547 §3. That single document collapses the amber + red segments into the green floor.

Hidden opportunity — procurement angle
💡 Switching from Morocco to Mali pays off if their goods premium stays under 1.6%. Competitors paying defaults are 1.6% more expensive at the customer — that's a marketing weapon, not just compliance.
Show year-by-year tolerance bars
Top current supplier of CN 31055900: Morocco (EU default 0.67 tCO₂e/t). Lowest-default-intensity CBAM-eligible alternative: Mali (EU default 0.50 tCO₂e/t).
Tolerance grows yearly — every markup phase makes the lower-default origin more competitive on landed cost.
Compare both origins side-by-side in the calculatorThreshold, not claim: we compute the maximum goods-price premium for Maliwhere switching still saves money. We don't have visibility into your supplier negotiations; the actual quoted premium varies by supplier and contract.
EU defaults are conservative: your existing supplier's verified emissions may already be at or below Mali's default. Run with verified data when available.

Don't know how to ask your supplier for emission data?
📨 We'll write the letter for you — legal-grade citing Reg 2025/2547 §3 verbatim. Free, email-delivered. No competitor offers this; consultancies charge €5,000+ for equivalent letters.
See what the letter requests + how it works
What the letter asks for (exactly the 6 inputs Reg 2025/2547 §3 entitles you to request from the producer):
- Direct emission intensity (tCO₂e per tonne of CN 31055900)
- Indirect emission intensity (tCO₂e per tonne)
- Production route (e.g. blast furnace / electric arc furnace for steel)
- Aggregated parameter for input materials (precursors)
- Verifier statement per §6 (EA-recognised verifier)
- Statement of carbon price already paid in country of origin (Reg 2023/956 Art 9 deduction support)
How it works: fill in your supplier's name + email + your company details + annual import volume. We generate a tamper-proof PDF + email-ready text and email it to YOU (not your supplier directly) — you stay in control of the relationship.

Origin carbon-price deduction (Article 9)
Article 9 of Regulation (EU) 2023/956 lets importers deduct any verified carbon price already paid in the country of origin from the CBAM certificate cost. If your Moroccosupplier participates in a domestic ETS or carbon-tax scheme and can produce verifier-attested proof of payment, you enter the €/tCO₂e in the calculator's Origin carbon price paid field and the deduction is applied to the gross cost.
We do not publish a live table of Morocco's domestic carbon prices on this page — the value depends on the specific scheme + verification, not a public daily print. Speak with your supplier and provide the verified figure to the calculator yourself.

Frequently asked: CBAM imports from CN 31055900 (Other mineral or chemical fertilisers containing the two fertilising elements nitrogen and phosphorus (excl. nitrates and phosphates))
Is CN 31055900 (Other mineral or chemical fertilisers containing the two fertilising elements nitrogen and phosphorus (excl. nitrates and phosphates)) in CBAM scope?
Yes. CN 31055900 is classified under the fertilisers sector in CBAM scope per Annex I of Regulation (EU) 2023/956. EU importers of this CN code must comply with CBAM reporting obligations from January 2026 (definitive period). Verify scope status with our cn-scope monitor cron, refreshed weekly.
What is the EU default emission intensity for CN 31055900?
The European Commission publishes country-specific default emission values for CN 31055900 under Implementing Regulation (EU) 2025/2621. Across CBAM-eligible non-EU origins, the published range is 0.54 tCO2e per tonne (Mali — lowest published default) to 1.24 tCO2e per tonne (China — highest published default). The 2026 marked-up value adds +10% per Reg 2025/2621 §3, phasing to +20% in 2027 and +30% from 2028.
Where can I import CN 31055900 most cheaply (CBAM cost)?
By 2026 marked-up EU default emission intensity × current CBAM certificate price (€75.36/tCO2e), the lowest CBAM cost per 100-tonne shipment comes from: Israel (€4,719 per 100 t), Egypt (€4,719 per 100 t), Tunisia (€4,871 per 100 t). This ranks origins by EU-published default intensity only — your supplier's verified emissions may put any origin lower. Run the calculator at /cbam/calculator with your specific shipment for an exact comparison.
Can my supplier's verified emissions reduce my CBAM cost on CN 31055900?
Yes. Per Implementing Regulation (EU) 2025/2547 §3, an importer can substitute the EU default emission intensity with a supplier-verified figure. The verified figure must come from an EA-recognised verifier per Reg (EU) 2025/2546 (verification of declared embedded emissions). For most imports the verified intensity is materially lower than the default + statutory markup, so getting verified data from your supplier reduces CBAM cost. Article 9 of Regulation (EU) 2023/956 also lets you deduct the carbon price already paid in the country of origin from the CBAM surrender obligation, with verified documentation.
