applies from: unknown (an inserted provision states its own application date only in prose)

This is a new article setting out a procedure for verifiers accredited under Article 18 to request registration in the CBAM registry with the competent authority of the Member State where the national accreditation body is established.

It lists the information the registration request must contain, requires notifications to the verifier, the Commission and other competent authorities, and requires the verifier to report subsequent changes so the registry is updated.

It also directs verifiers to use the CBAM registry for embedded emissions verification under Article 10(5)(b), and sets out grounds and steps for a competent authority to deregister and delete information on a verifier.
