Most pages selling CBAM-for-textiles packages to garment factories are misleading. CBAM Phase 1 (2023–2025, reporting only) covers cement, iron & steel, aluminium, fertilisers, electricity and hydrogen — textiles are not in Phase 1. The real pressure on textile exporters is CSRD Scope 3 supplier reporting, where EU brands are legally required to report their supply-chain emissions. This page explains what to actually prepare.
