Default values by country of origin

Annex I default values in tCO₂e per tonne of the good, before the mark-up: 122 tables (121 countries and territories plus "Other Countries and Territories"), each shown here for all 260 codes and code groups of the Annex.

Only the total is binding; direct and indirect emissions are printed for information, and a total can differ from their sum by rounding. "N/A" is printed where indirect emissions are not in scope. A dash or a missing row in a country table means that the value of "Other Countries and Territories" applies, with its production route (Annex I, introduction). A mark-up is added to the total before any deduction: see the schedule below. Route letters are explained under the benchmark table.

CBAM benchmarks

570 CN codes, in tCO₂e per tonne of the good. Column B is the default benchmark used with default values; Column A is the process benchmark used with actual emissions.

CBAM factor, mark-up and correction factor by year

Certificates per tonne with default values = default value × (1 + mark-up) − CBAM factor × cross-sectoral correction factor × Column B benchmark, never below zero.

The CBAM factor is the share of EU ETS free allocation still granted. From 2034 no factor applies, so nothing is deducted. The cross-sectoral correction factor and the benchmarks are set up to 2030; for later years they are not published yet. Electricity carries no mark-up and no deduction. The quarterly holding of Article 22(2) of Regulation (EU) 2023/956 is 50% from 2027.

The official CBAM tables, free to use

A CBAM cost with default values needs four inputs: the default value for the country of origin and the CN code, the mark-up for the year, the CBAM benchmark for the same code and production route, and the CBAM factor for the year. They sit in three different legal acts. This explorer puts them side by side, as published in the Official Journal, and lets you export each table as CSV for your own spreadsheets and systems.

Default values come from Annex I to Implementing Regulation (EU) 2025/2621 as replaced by Implementing Regulation (EU) 2026/1740: 122 tables with 10,910 printed values. Where a country table shows a dash or has no row, the value of the table "Other Countries and Territories" applies; the explorer marks those rows. Benchmarks come from point 5.3 of the Annex to Implementing Regulation (EU) 2025/2620, and the CBAM factor from Article 10a(1a) of Directive 2003/87/EC.

To turn the tables into a certificate figure for your own goods, use the CBAM cost calculator, which works on exactly these tables. Any result built on them is an estimate built on the official default values and benchmarks (Implementing Regulations (EU) 2025/2621 and 2025/2620); the binding figure is the one in your CBAM declaration.

The default values, benchmarks and schedule are reproduced from the Official Journal of the European Union; attribution to cbamguide.com is appreciated when you reuse these files. The electricity emission factors of Annex III are shown for reference with their attribution and are not part of the downloads, because they reproduce data of the International Energy Agency under a non-commercial licence.
