Integrating the European Trade Indexes Registry (EUTIR) into the European Climate Resilience and Risk Management Framework

The document “Integrating the European Trade Indexes Registry (EUTIR) into the European Climate Resilience and Risk Management Framework” presents a strategic proposal by DigitalTrade4.EU to enhance the EU’s climate resilience through advanced digital infrastructure. Submitted as feedback to the European Commission in August 2025, it advocates for the establishment of EUTIR as a trusted, decentralised, and interoperable registry to verify and trace climate-relevant trade data across sectors. By integrating with key EU systems such as the Digital Product Passport (DPP), electronic Freight Transport Information (eFTI), and the Carbon Border Adjustment Mechanism (CBAM), EUTIR aims to strengthen supply chain resilience, ensure real-time compliance verification, and support science-based climate adaptation. The document outlines EUTIR’s role in overcoming regulatory, financial, and institutional barriers, while promoting sustainability, digital innovation, and global leadership in secure, green trade.
