Overview Resources

Regulation (EU) 2023/956 introduced CBAM, as a means of ensuring that importers pay for the harmful emissionscaused by the production of certain goods. Currently, importers or their indirect representatives must file a report each quarter on the CBAM goods imported during the preceding quarter. Even occasional importers of CBAM goods are obliged to do that. There is no annual de minimis limit to exempt small importers. 

Learn more about CBAM and the reporting obligations for importers by watching the recording. If you want to find out more how to calculate carbon emissions for the purpose of CBAM recording watch the recording of the webinar 'Understanding CBAM: The New Frontier for Customs'.

Please find the slides in the resources section. 

Resources are available after purchase.

Fur coat? Not in Israel
15-09-2024

The import of furs of wildlife into the State of Israel is under a strict supervision of the Nature and Parks Authority, which is department of the Israeli Ministry of Environmental Protection. … This is part of a larger issue of importing animals or parts of them, but in this article we will focus on the import of furs into Israel. It’s an interesting example, which we believe is not common elsewhere, due to a very specific piece of Israeli law. This law forbids importing wildlife fur, unless they meet the conditions of one of a very few exceptions. One of the key exceptions is fur for religious purposes. The Israeli Customs Authority, which is authorized to supervise imports, serves as the Nature Authority long arm to check the compliance of imports when a shipment containing animal fur arrives in Israel.
