CBAM supplier data request letter — generated for you

Don't know how to ask your Chinese / Turkish / Indian supplier for emission data without sounding like a regulator? We'll write the letter for you — legal-grade, citing Implementing Regulation (EU) 2025/2547 §3 verbatim. Available in Chinese, Turkish, or English. The letter is emailed to YOU, not your supplier — you forward it yourself so the relationship stays in your hands.

Legal-grade content

Cites Reg (EU) 2025/2547 §3 verbatim — your supplier sees this is a legal entitlement, not a commercial request.

3 languages

English (binding); Chinese + Turkish stubs include the English original. We don't certify translations — disclaimer included.

You stay in control

We email the letter to YOU. You forward it to your supplier's contact — your relationship, your wording on the cover note.

What the letter requests (per Reg (EU) 2025/2547 §3)

EU declarants are entitled to request the following six items from the producer of CBAM-scope goods:

  1. Direct emission intensity (tCO₂e per tonne of finished goods).
  2. Indirect emission intensity (tCO₂e per tonne) — covers electricity used in production.
  3. Production route (e.g. blast furnace / electric arc furnace for steel).
  4. Aggregated parameter for input materials (precursors).
  5. Verifier statement under Reg (EU) 2025/2546 (verification of declared embedded emissions) — EA-recognised verifier required.
  6. Statement of any carbon price already paid in the country of origin — supports Article 9 deduction under Reg (EU) 2023/956.

The letter explains the importer's obligation (CBAM applies from 1 January 2026) and frames the request around bypassing the EU default-value mark-up (+10% in 2026, +20% in 2027, +30% from 2028 — Reg (EU) 2025/2621 §3) by using the supplier's verified emissions instead.
