First annual CBAM declaration is due 30/09/2027. Document your cement imports from Albania now.
EU default-value mark-up is +10% in 2026 and rises to +20% in 2027 per Implementing Reg (EU) 2025/2621. Switching to supplier-verified emissions skips the mark-up entirely — but you need verified figures before the higher rate kicks in. Calculate your exposure today, share the results with your supplier, and lock in lower CBAM cost for the year ahead.

Where in the EU does Albania ship CBAM-scope goods?
Eurostat Comext · as of 01/2026Top EU member-state destinations per sector — derived from Eurostat Comext extra-EU import flows. Each destination links to that country's CBAM National Competent Authority (NCA), which is the regulator the EU importer registers with for CBAM declarant status.
Worked example for Albania
Open the live calculator with CN 25232900, origin ALB, tonnage 100 t pre-filled. The result panel renders a live € figure using the EU's published default intensities + the current quarter's CBAM certificate price — no precomputed number lives on this page (so the example never goes stale).
Open the calculatorOrigin 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 Albaniasupplier 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We do not publish a live table of Albania's domestic carbon prices on this page — the value depends on the specific scheme + verification, not a public daily print.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 Albania
How much CBAM-scope mass does Albania ship to the EU?
Per Eurostat Comext (DS-059341), EU-27 imports from Albania of CBAM-scope goods totalled approximately 18 kilotonnes in 01/2026, with cement as the dominant sector. Source: Eurostat Comext monthly extract.
What is the current CBAM certificate price for imports from Albania?
The CBAM certificate price is set EU-wide, not per origin. The most recently published price is €75.36 per tonne CO₂e. This applies to all CBAM-scope imports regardless of origin. Source: EU TAXUD CBAM certificate-price publication.
Where do I find the EU default emission values for Albania?
The European Commission publishes country-specific default emission values in the "DVs as adopted" Excel under Implementing Regulation (EU) 2025/2621. The /cbam/origin/alb page surfaces a representative slice of these values for Albania; the calculator at /cbam/calculator resolves the full set against the importer's CN code.
Can the carbon price already paid in Albania be deducted from the CBAM cost?
Yes, under Article 9 of Regulation (EU) 2023/956. An importer can deduct the carbon price effectively paid in the country of origin from the CBAM surrender obligation. The deduction must be supported by verified documentation from the supplier; we do not pre-fill an estimated deduction because Article 9 requires the actual price paid by the supplier, not a country-average figure.
