# Should an Indian supplier share CBAM data through the Registry or by email?

Canonical: https://senseible.earth/answers/cbam-registry-vs-email-supplier-data-confidential

Through the CBAM Registry if you can. A registered operator uploads verified data once and declarants see only a summary. Without registration you must send your full emissions report and verification report to every buyer, and the Commission advises email only for non-confidential material unless encrypted.

## Registered in the Registry

- Upload installation and emissions data once in the O3CI portal.
- Share with each declarant who gives you its EORI number.
- Buyers see a summary, not your full report.

## Not registered

- Send each buyer the full report and the verifier's PDF report.
- Each buyer uploads them by hand when preparing its declaration.
- Your full data travels by email or file share.

## From 2027

The Registry is due to let operators share data with other producers who use their goods as precursors.

## What Senseible does here

Senseible reads an exporter's fuel and electricity invoices into dated, fingerprinted records that a monitoring plan and a verifier can trace back to source. Senseible does not verify emissions, register operators in the CBAM Registry or file CBAM declarations.
