CBAM default values for Bosnia and Herzegovina. The number your buyer declares without your data.
Bosnia and Herzegovina has its own table in Annex I of the CBAM default values regulation. It covers aluminium, iron and steel, cement, fertilisers and hydrogen. Below are the values for the goods BiH plants export most, with the mark-up for each year.

How the BiH table works.
What the Bosnia and Herzegovina table covers
The BiH table gives values for aluminium (route (K), primary aluminium), iron and steel (mostly route (C), the blast furnace route), grey clinker and cements, the nitrogen fertilisers and hydrogen. It also gives a value for agglomerated iron ore.
Where the table shows “–”, the importer must use the “Other countries and territories” value instead. In the BiH table that is the case for every ferro-alloy, for white clinker and white cements, aluminous cement, calcined clay and anhydrous ammonia.
What the importer actually declares
The importer selects the total-emissions value and adds the mark-up for the year: 10% in 2026, 20% in 2027 and 30% from 2028 for aluminium, steel, cement and hydrogen, and 1% for fertilisers. For a window fabricator that means 3.721 tCO₂e per tonne becomes 4.093 in 2026 and 4.837 from 2028, on every tonne shipped without actual data.
Where actual data changes the number
An aluminium fabricator that buys profiles and cuts, assembles and coats them has a very different footprint from the primary-aluminium route the default assumes. Aluminium and steel are charged on direct emissions only, and profiles bought from an EU supplier carry zero embedded emissions as a precursor. That is the gap our default versus actual data guide walks through.
Aluminium default values, Bosnia and Herzegovina.
Direct emissions only; the Annex shows indirect emissions as N/A for aluminium.

Your actual SEE, next to the BiH default.
Karbon360 calculates specific embedded emissions per CN code from your installation’s records, under Implementing Regulation (EU) 2025/2547, and shows the Commission default for the same good and country beside it, marked up for the year. Your buyer sees both numbers and the trace behind yours.

Frequently asked questions
What is the CBAM default value for aluminium windows from Bosnia and Herzegovina?
CN 7610 10 00 has a total-emissions default of 3.721 tCO₂e per tonne. With the mark-up the importer declares 4.093 in 2026, 4.465 in 2027 and 4.837 from 2028.
What is the default for BiH reinforcing bar?
CN 7214 20 00 carries 2.340 tCO₂e per tonne on route (C). With the mark-up that is 2.574 in 2026, 2.808 in 2027 and 3.042 from 2028.
Why do BiH ferro-alloys use a different table?
The BiH table lists ferro-alloys but shows “–” for every one. Annex I says that in that case the value from “Other countries and territories” applies, for example 4.014 tCO₂e per tonne for ferro-nickel.
Are indirect emissions included for BiH cement?
Yes. Cement and fertilisers are charged on total emissions, direct plus indirect. Grey clinker from BiH has 0.860 direct and 0.060 indirect, 0.920 in total.
Does my buyer have to use these values?
No. The declarant can declare actual emissions from your installation instead, verified by an accredited verifier. Karbon360 prepares that data and the calculation; the verification is done by an independent accredited verifier.
