# One export shipment has goods under several CN codes. How do we give CBAM figures?

Canonical: https://senseible.earth/answers/cbam-one-shipment-several-cn-codes

Give a figure for each CN code and each installation that made it, not one figure for the container. The importer declares embedded emissions line by line against the customs declaration, so a mixed shipment needs one figure per product, with tonnes per line that match the invoice and packing list.

## What to send

- CN code, tonnes and specific embedded emissions for each line.
- The installation where each product was made.
- Whether each figure is actual or a default value.

## Goods that are not covered

If some lines are outside Annex I, say so per line. The importer only declares the covered ones, but a clear list saves a round of questions.

## Keep it consistent

Use the same figure for the same product from the same installation and period across shipments. Changing it per container invites a verifier query.

## What Senseible does here

Senseible reads fuel, electricity and production documents into dated, fingerprinted installation records, the starting point for the actual emissions an EU importer asks for.
