Is HS 8450 covered by CBAM?
Fully-automatic washing machines
Proposed for 2028
Not yet. 3 CN codes under heading 8450 are in the Commission's proposal to extend CBAM from 1 January 2028.
Not covered today, but the European Commission has proposed adding it from 1 January 2028. This is a proposal: the European Parliament and the Council can still change it.
Proposed from 2028
| CN code | Product |
|---|---|
| 8450 11 | Fully-automatic washing machines |
| 8450 12 | Washing machines with built-in centrifugal drier |
| 8450 19 | Other washing machines, up to 10 kg |
What to do now
Nothing is payable yet. But buyers plan contracts a year ahead, so start keeping fuel and electricity records now, and ask your steel or aluminium suppliers for their emissions data.
