You buy hot-rolled coil or rebar from Turkey because the price is right and the lead time is short. Now Regulation (EU) 2023/956 requires you to declare embedded emissions and surrender CBAM certificates for every tonne you import. Your Turkish mill doesn't have verified data ready. The European Commission default value for Turkish steel is 4.097 tCO₂e/t — and it includes a 10% mark-up. CBAMCheck generates the complete 12-deliverable dossier with Turkish default values pre-loaded, plus a letter template in English to request actual emissions from your supplier.

Turkey is the EU's closest major steel supplier outside the single market. Hot-rolled coil (CN 7208), rebar (CN 7214) and wire rod (CN 7213) are the most common Turkish steel products imported into Italy, Spain and Germany. Under Regulation (EU) 2023/956, every tonne carries embedded emissions that require CBAM certificates from 2026 onwards.
The CBAM entered its definitive phase on 1 January 2026. This is the sequence of obligations specific to your situation as an EU importer of Turkish steel.
Your Turkish mill can provide emission data (and you should request it — it may be lower than the default). But the legal obligation to declare, purchase certificates and surrender them lies with the authorised CBAM declarant in the EU. That is you, not your supplier in Iskenderun or Gebze. Art. 5 and Art. 6 of Regulation (EU) 2023/956.
A Turkish steel mill's corporate sustainability report is not CBAM-compliant documentation. Regulation (EU) 2023/956 requires emissions calculated using the methods of Annex IV — covering direct emissions from the production process and, for certain goods, indirect emissions from electricity. CBAMCheck structures the calculation per Annex IV using the exact CN code of your goods.
The phase-out of free allocation (Art. 31) means CBAM certificate obligations increase each year through 2034. Starting financial planning now — not in 2027 — gives you time to negotiate with your Turkish supplier for actual emissions data, compare alternative origins, and budget the compliance cost. CBAMCheck's dashboard projects costs through 2032.

CBAMCheck applies the methods of Annex IV and the default values of Reg. 2025/2621 to your Turkish steel import data. It calculates embedded emissions per CN code, estimates the number of CBAM certificates, and projects costs through 2032. Twelve documents, ready in 30 minutes.
The official EU portal does not calculate emissions for you. It is a submission system. You enter the results of your own calculations. CBAMCheck generates the structured data so that completing the CBAM Registry is fast and error-free.
Regulation (EU) 2023/956 established penalties for both authorised CBAM declarants who fail to surrender certificates and importers who introduce goods without CBAM authorisation.
Art. 26(1): The penalty is identical to the excess emissions penalty under Art. 16(3) of Directive 2003/87/EC, increased annually per Art. 16(4). Applied per CBAM certificate not surrendered. Payment does not release you from the obligation to surrender the outstanding certificates (Art. 26(3)).
Art. 26(2): A person who introduces goods without CBAM authorisation faces a penalty from three to five times the standard rate per certificate not surrendered, depending on duration, gravity, scope and intentional nature of the non-compliance.
Art. 2a: Importers below 50 net tonnes annually (all CBAM goods aggregated) are exempt from CBAM obligations. If you exceed 50 tonnes in a calendar year, all emissions from all goods imported that year are subject to CBAM — including those below the threshold.
