Create a CBAM Report

To create a CBAM report, click on “CBAM Reports” in the navigation bar. There, you can add a new report by clicking the button in the top right corner. In the window that opens, you only need to:

1. Select the company for which you want to create the report. If you have only one reportable company (EORI number), this step is unnecessary.
2. Select the name of the user who should appear in the report as the “Importer for all Goods.”
3. Choose the quarter for which the report should be created.
4. Check the two checkboxes to confirm the contents of the report.
5. Click “Save” to create the report.

The report will then be generated, and you can download it in the correct format (.xml file within a zip file) using the download icon.
