Know Your CBAM Liability Before the Bill Arrives
Get a simple, automated CBAM cost-modelling and compliance platform built for Irish importers
Stop guessing your carbon exposure and start protecting your margins today
Why Calculate Carbon Tax efficiently ?
CBAM is no longer just a reporting requirement. It’s a direct hit to your bottom line. Importing carbon-intensive goods (like steel, aluminum, fertilizer, or cement) into Ireland means navigating volatile carbon certificate pricing, strict EU default values, and complex customs documentation.
Unexpected Financial Liabilities
Being blindsided by high certificate costs at the tax point
Not Providing for Costs
Missing substantial costs, in your sales quotation or tender pricing
Compliance Bottlenecks
Missing declaration deadlines and inaccurate customs documentation
Supplier Risk
Not knowing which suppliers are increasing your embedded emissions

The Cost of Doing Nothing - Manual
Tracking is a Compliance Trap
Using spreadsheets for EU carbon taxes is a compliance trap. Manual tracking forces you to guess on certificate prices, risk missing the 50-tonne threshold, and waste hours chasing supplier data and CN codes – leading to customs hold-ups and fines. A digital solution eliminates these risks with live pricing, real-time threshold monitoring, automated lookups, and audit-ready reports in seconds.
How does it work ? - Compliance in 3 Simple steps
Step 1 - Input Your Import Data
Enter your CN code, weight, and origin country. Leverage EU default values (tCO2e) or your supplier's specific production route data.
Step 2 - Model the Cost Impact
Instantly see your Total Embedded Emissions and projected Certificate Price (EUR) calculated against live or estimated market rates.
Step 3 - Track Imports & Comply
Track liability costs on our audit-ready dashboard, summarise excel reports, and share clean compliance documentation instantly.

Built on Decades of Global Trade Expertise
FAQ
How does your software calculate costs if my supplier hasn't provided actual emissions data?
If your supplier hasn’t provided a verified production carbon profile, our software automatically applies the official EU Embedded Emissions Default Values (tCO_2e/t) based on your specific CN code, ensuring your liability estimations are completely compliant with current EU thresholds
What is the 50t De Minimis threshold shown on the dashboard?
The EU allows an exemption for import consignments where the total weight of CBAM goods does not exceed 50 tonnes per quarter. Our software tracks your cumulative volume in real time so you can estimate when you are approaching or crossing this threshold.
How is this platform connected to Export Edge?
Our software is built entirely upon Export Edge’s decades of trade compliance expertise. While the platform automates the calculation and dashboard data, it is backed by the same regulatory intelligence that Irish importers have relied on for years to keep their customs operations seamless.
Can we track carbon liabilities across multiple company entities or subsidiaries?
Yes. Our software’s CBAM Liabilities hub allows you to query, filter, and track certificate purchases by specific EORI numbers and corporate names. This ensures distinct tracking for different purchasing units or beneficiaries under a single master corporate account.
How does the system handle bulk data from our external customs brokers?
Our file uploads module supports batch file processing. You can upload data sets directly, tag them by source type, and monitor their ingestion status via our batch automation log, eliminating the need to manually copy-paste line items from broker spreadsheets.
Can we import data from our customs brokers?
Yes. The platform features a dedicated “Broker Import” and “Bulk Upload” utility under the Import Declarations screen, allowing you to bypass manual data entry entirely.
