Which ESG regulations apply to my company in 2026?

It depends on your headquarters jurisdiction, stock exchange listing, company size, EU revenue, California business activity, and EU import activity. Major regulations include the EU CSRD (1,000+ employees and 450M+ euro turnover), California SB 253 (1B+ revenue, doing business in California), UK SRS (proposed for UK-listed companies from 2027), and others.

Do I need to comply with the EU CSRD?

After the CSRD Omnibus entered into force in March 2026, EU companies need 1,000+ employees AND over 450 million euro net turnover. Non-EU companies need over 450 million euro in EU revenue for each of the last two fiscal years and an EU subsidiary or branch exceeding 200 million euro turnover. Listed SMEs have been fully removed from scope. If you meet these thresholds, your first reporting depends on which wave you fall into, with Wave 2 first reports due in 2028 covering FY2027.

When is the California SB 253 deadline?

The first Scope 1 and 2 emissions report under SB 253 is due August 10, 2026. This applies to public or private companies doing business in California with over 1 billion dollars in total annual revenue. Scope 3 reporting begins in 2027. CARB is exercising enforcement discretion for good-faith first-year efforts, but companies must still submit data or a statement explaining why they cannot.
