You import Turkish aluminium profiles and the difference between default and actual emissions could save you thousands in CBAM certificates

Turkish aluminium exports to the EU have almost doubled since 2019 (+95.4%). You buy profiles and extrusions from Turkish extruders because quality is reliable and delivery is fast. The European Commission default value for Turkish aluminium is 3.323 tCO₂e/t — but Turkish extruders using scrap-based or partially hydroelectric production may have actual emissions well below this. Getting actual data from your supplier could reduce your CBAM certificate cost significantly. CBAMCheck generates 12 deliverables including the calculation with defaults, a letter template in English to request actual data, and a dashboard that shows the financial difference.

The numbers behind Turkish aluminium CBAM exposure

Turkey's aluminium export growth to the EU (+95.4% since 2019) reflects increasing demand for Turkish profiles and extrusions in construction, automotive and industrial applications. Turkish aluminium has a lower default emission intensity than Chinese (3.323 vs. 4.928 tCO₂e/t), giving Turkish-origin imports a cost advantage under CBAM — an advantage that increases further if you obtain actual emissions data.

CBAM compliance path for importers of Turkish aluminium

1
Obtain authorised CBAM declarant status (Art. 5)
Required before customs clearance under CBAM definitive phase.
2
Verify CN codes against Annex I
Profiles (7604), wire (7605), sheets (7606), foil (7607), tubes (7608). CBAMCheck confirms scope.
3
Request actual emission data from your Turkish extruder
CBAMCheck includes an English letter template referencing Annex IV. If your extruder uses scrap-based production or hydroelectric power, actual emissions may be substantially lower than the 3.323 tCO₂e/t default. Start with defaults, update with actuals later.
4
Purchase CBAM certificates from February 2027 (Art. 20)
Turkey has no carbon pricing deductible under Art. 9. Certificates cover full embedded emissions.
5
Submit CBAM declaration by 30 September 2027 (Art. 6)
First declaration covers 2026 imports. Dashboard in the dossier tracks all deadlines.

Three mistakes importers of Turkish aluminium make with CBAM

❌
Mistake 1 — Paying annual subscriptions for a once-a-year calculation

CBAM declarations are annual — you don't need a €4,000/year platform

You file one CBAM declaration per year (Art. 6). The embedded emissions calculation is based on annual tonnage and the emission factor of your supplier's installation. A subscription-based platform is designed for continuous monitoring — not for an annual filing. CBAMCheck is €299 one-time, with an editable dashboard that lets you update numbers each year without paying again.

❌
Mistake 2 — Not distinguishing between primary aluminium and semielaborated products

Emission intensity differs: unwrought aluminium (7601) vs. profiles (7604) vs. foil (7607)

The default value of 3.323 tCO₂e/t is a sector average. The actual emission factor depends on whether you import unwrought (primary smelted) aluminium or downstream products (extruded profiles, rolled sheets). CBAMCheck uses the exact CN code to apply the correct emission calculation methodology per Annex IV.

❌
Mistake 3 — Accepting defaults without requesting actual data from your supplier

Turkish extruders using scrap or hydro may have emissions well below 3.323 tCO₂e/t

Default values include a 10% mark-up (Annex IV, point 4.1). If your Turkish supplier's actual emissions are lower, you pay fewer CBAM certificates. The financial difference on 500 tonnes could be thousands of euros per year. CBAMCheck includes the letter template. Send it now — the data takes time to prepare.
