Russia is the largest ammonia supplier to the EU. If you operate a fertiliser plant or trade chemical commodities in Belgium, the Netherlands or Germany, the CBAM cost on Russian ammonia (CN 2814) adds a second regulatory layer to the progressive tariffs effective since July 2025. These are distinct obligations: tariffs are trade policy; CBAM is carbon pricing under Regulation (EU) 2023/956. CBAMCheck generates the 12-document CBAM dossier — including the Art. 9 carbon price documentation and a 7-year financial projection — so you can quantify the CBAM cost separately and present it to management. €299, one-time, 100% browser-side.

Russian ammonia faces a unique double burden in the EU: progressive trade tariffs and CBAM certificates. The CBAM cost is based on embedded CO₂ emissions — not on trade origin policy. Understanding the separation is critical for procurement decisions and for presenting the cost breakdown to management or board committees.
The definitive CBAM period is in effect. Ammonia (CN 2814) falls under the fertilisers category in Annex I. The greenhouse gas for ammonia is CO₂. Here is the obligation sequence under Regulation (EU) 2023/956.
EU progressive tariffs on Russian fertilisers are trade policy measures calculated on customs value. CBAM certificates under Regulation (EU) 2023/956 are a carbon price mechanism calculated on embedded emissions (tCO₂e). Mixing these costs in a single line item obscures the true impact of each. CBAMCheck calculates the CBAM certificate cost independently — tariff calculation depends on the applicable customs regime.
Annex I of Regulation (EU) 2023/956 lists ammonia (CN 2814) with CO₂ as the sole greenhouse gas. Nitrogenous fertilisers (CN 3102) and nitric acid (CN 2808) additionally cover N₂O. Using a generic "fertiliser" emission factor that includes N₂O overstates the embedded emissions for ammonia and inflates the certificate requirement. CBAMCheck applies the correct CN-specific methodology.
Some compliance platforms require account creation and a demo call before revealing their pricing structure. CBAMCheck costs €299, one-time, displayed on every page. No registration, no demo, no annual subscription. You know the cost before entering any data.
The dossier covers the full CBAM obligation chain for your Russian ammonia imports. Every document references the specific article it relates to. The 7-year projection allows you to present the long-term cost trajectory to management.

You enter your ammonia import data — CN 2814, tonnage, Russia as origin. CBAMCheck applies the 1.509 tCO₂e/t default value, generates the Art. 9 template, produces the 7-year projection showing cost escalation as free allocation decreases, and delivers the 12-document dossier. Separate from any tariff calculation.
The CBAM registry under Art. 14 is where you submit the declaration and surrender certificates. It does not calculate emissions, estimate costs, generate Art. 9 documentation, or produce 7-year projections. You arrive with everything pre-computed.
Art. 26 penalties are in addition to — not a substitute for — any tariff obligations. Non-compliance with CBAM is a separate infringement from trade policy violations.
Art. 26(1). Payment does not release you from surrendering outstanding certificates (Art. 26(3)).
Art. 26(2). Per certificate that should have been surrendered.
Art. 26(2a) + Art. 2a. A single ammonia shipment typically exceeds 50 tonnes. The enhanced penalty applies to all emissions for the year.
