Standards |
Companies will be required to report on sustainability according to mandatory reporting standards.

Sectorial standards will be developed by EFRAG to cover:
The Commission is expected to adopt the standards in their final form in June 2023 and 2024 respectively. |
Auditor’s assurance |
Mandatory requirement for review of disclosures and assurance by a statutory auditor or independent assurance services provider that there has been no material misstatement in company’s disclosures. |
Digital Tagging |
Requirement to prepare annual financial reports in XHTML format and mark sustainability information in financial statements and management reports with a digital ‘tag’ so that it is machine readable. |
The CSRD will enter into force 20 days after publication on the EU Official Journal. The provisions will be applicable in stages between 2024 and 2029:
It is estimated that 50,000 companies will be covered by the new rules. Companies will need to assess their reporting strategies in light of the CSRD and develop mechanisms to collect and monitor relevant, verifiable data as well as disclose relevant information in a transparent and efficient manner backed by an independent verification.
The Norton Rose Fulbright Environment team will continue to monitor the CSRD as it gradually comes into force and we will keep a close eye on the accompanying standards as they are developed.
