Turn sustainability requirements into border-ready data and processes

A growing range of sustainability and product regulations affects the goods companies import, export and place on the EU market.

Compliance increasingly depends on information that sits across customs, procurement, sustainability, supply chain and suppliers: tariff classifications, product composition, embedded emissions, country of production, geolocation data and supporting evidence.

Our Green-to-Border approach brings these elements together.

We help businesses identify which rules affect their products, determine which data are required, obtain reliable supplier evidence and integrate compliance into existing import and border processes. 

From sustainability regulation to real import flows

Regulatory obligations are often approached one regulation at a time, even though the same products, suppliers, data and customs processes may be affected by multiple requirements.

We help organisations create a common compliance architecture that connects products and tariff codes with suppliers, origin, regulatory scope, supporting evidence, importer obligations and border processes. The result is a portfolio view of regulatory exposure built around actual products and supply chains rather than isolated legal projects.

CBAM compliance

The Carbon Border Adjustment Mechanism brings carbon requirements directly into the import process.

We help businesses connect product scope and tariff classifications with import flows, supplier emissions data, CBAM declarant requirements, internal controls and financial planning. By integrating reliable data, clear responsibilities and cost modelling into existing customs and finance processes, we help organisations build a practical approach to CBAM compliance.

EUDR compliance and due diligence

The EU Deforestation Regulation places new demands on supply-chain traceability and due diligence.

We help organisations understand which products are in scope and bring together supplier information, geolocation and legality evidence, traceability and risk assessment. By integrating due diligence, data requirements, supplier engagement and governance into existing processes, we help businesses build a practical and structured approach to EUDR compliance.

Product and packaging requirements

Green-to-Border extends beyond CBAM and EUDR, with requirements around areas such as packaging, batteries and F-gases also affecting products, suppliers and border processes. Rather than addressing each regulation separately, we help businesses identify common data, evidence and controls across their compliance obligations. This reduces duplication and creates clearer responsibilities across the organisation.

Supplier data and evidence

Many sustainability requirements rely on information provided by suppliers, making effective supply-chain data management essential for compliance.

We help organisations structure supplier outreach, standardise information requests and establish effective processes for evidence collection, validation, exceptions and revalidation. This moves compliance beyond simply collecting documents towards ensuring that the underlying evidence is complete, credible and fit for its regulatory purpose.

Connect sustainability compliance to customs

Customs data provides a vital link between sustainability requirements and the products actually crossing the border.

We help organisations connect regulatory scope and evidence requirements with tariff classifications, product data, origin, import flows and importer responsibilities, while embedding these requirements into customs declarations, broker instructions and release processes. This creates a more practical compliance model and reduces the risk of sustainability requirements disrupting day-to-day trade.

Build one Green-to-Border roadmap

When multiple regulations affect a product portfolio, businesses need a clear view of where to start. We help organisations identify what is in scope, determine the required evidence, uncover gaps in data, systems and controls, and prioritise the changes needed across suppliers, processes and responsibilities. This creates one integrated roadmap based on actual business exposure rather than a series of separate compliance projects.

Managed Green-to-Border services

Green-to-Border compliance requires ongoing coordination across suppliers, products, data and internal teams. 

We provide additional expertise and capacity for CBAM and EUDR follow-up, evidence validation, exception and obligation monitoring, due diligence and reporting. This helps organisations maintain central oversight while connecting information across procurement, customs, sustainability and compliance functions.

One border, connected obligations

Customs, sustainability and trade controls increasingly converge around the same product and transaction.

The same tariff code that supports a customs declaration may help determine regulatory scope. Supplier documentation may need to support both origin and sustainability requirements. An otherwise compliant shipment may still face restrictions because of destination or end-use.

Our Customs, Sanctions and Trade approach connects these requirements to one control environment, with clearer evidence, responsibility and escalation.
