Calculate Embedded Emissions for Unwrought Aluminium (HS7601)

Enter your input

Payable emissions (tCO₂e/t)

Total CBAM Cost (€)

Notes:
There may be a difference when calculating the price with respect to import volume, carbon price, and benchmark emissions, as the embedded formula may result in minor variations due to decimal rounding. Therefore, the actual value may vary.

CBAM is applicable to trade volumes starting from 50 metric tonnes. For trade volumes below 50 metric tonnes, CBAM does not apply.

Usage Procedure – How to use the CBAM Calculator Sheet

Enter or update values only in the INPUT
PARAMETERS section (Highlighted in blue) , including
the carbon price, benchmark emissions, CBAM
chargeable percentage (as per the phase-in year),
and imported quantity.

The system will automatically calculate the payable
emissions and the total CBAM cost (€) based on the
inputs provided.

Notes:
• Change any input value to automatically update CBAM cost.
• Formula used: Carbon price × payable emissions × quantity.
• Model aligned with CBAM supplier-side illustrative methodology.

US pulls-back 10% tariff on Canadian Aluminium, following the rise of retaliation from Ottawa

EDITED BY : RUPANKAR MAJUMDER 2MINS READ

On 15^th September’20, the United States of America declared that it would no longer impose a 10% tariff on Canadian aluminium imports. It has been presumed that following the rise of retaliation from Ottawa, Donald Trump administration has changed its mind.

The duty-free treatment will be retroactive to September 1.

The Office of the US Trade Representative (USTR), however, has published a list of expected maximum monthly shipments of aluminium and warned it will re-impose the tariff if imports exceed those amounts.

USTR said in a statement: "After consultations with the Canadian government, the United States has determined that trade in non-alloyed, unwrought aluminium is likely to normalise in the last four months of 2020, with imports declining sharply from the surges experienced earlier in the year."

"Accordingly, the United States will modify the terms of the 10% tariff imposed in August."

US withdraws 10% tariff on Canadian Aluminium

US President Donald Trump had exempted Canadian products from tariffs as part of the USMCA free trade deal between the two countries and Mexico.

In August’20, he issued an order for 10% tariff on aluminium starting on 16^th August, citing a 27% rise in imports from Canada that posed a threat to domestic production.

The decision sparked with an enraged reaction from Ottawa, which said it would strike American aluminium products with C$3.6 billion in counter-tariffs.

More than 10,000 peoples are employed in the Canadian aluminium sector, and a few days back Prime Minister Justin Trudeau strongly called the new tariffs "unfair."

On 14^th September’20, Canada had been expecting to kick-off its list of items subject to the retaliatory measures before the US made its declaration.

An introductory list published by the Canadian government included soda and beer cans, bicycles, golf clubs and washing machines.

USTR said: “We would consult with the Canadian government at the end of the year to review activity over the last four months as well as its expectations for 2021.”
