How should an importer monitor the CBAM mass threshold?

Would you track covered imports centrally if several brokers and purchasing teams are involved?

  1. Yes, at the relevant importer level with the scope checked by your adviser. Separate broker spreadsheets can each look comfortably below a threshold while the combined total tells another story.
  2. The Commission describes a 50-tonne threshold for relevant covered goods, with important scope details. I wouldn't apply that number to every product or every CBAM category without checking.
  3. Use net mass from consistent records and preserve the source entry reference. Switching between gross shipping weight and product weight will make the tracker unreliable.
  4. I'd set an internal early-warning point below the applicable limit. It gives someone time to review the authorization position before a new order creates a surprise.
