Using the CBAM declarant portal

The CBAM Transitional Registry user manual describes the use of the CBAM portal in detail. It provides instructions on how to create, edit and submit reports. It also describes how you can prepare the data as an XML structure in order to import it into the CBAM portal. A report is then automatically created from the data. You can download an example in zip format and the XSD structure. The XLS file can be used to help you fill in the CBAM quarterly reports using XML files. The XLS file specifies which fields are optional or mandatory and contains the predefined values that are permitted for certain boxes.
