Audit reporting requirements for carbon data rights certificate
Last updated 21 May 2025
Registered agents, who have had the right to create carbon data rights certificates (CDRCs) assigned to them by BidCarbon removal unit owners, must obtain certain documentation to claim CDRCs. The Operating Companies may request these documents at any time to prove that the system was eligible for CDRCs.
Registered agents should customise their own combined CDRC assignment forms and written compliance statements to incorporate additional explanatory text, company logos and other features.
Individuals and small businesses who wish to create CDRCs without assigning the right to a registered agent, will have different document requirements to those set out below. See document requirements for BidCarbon removal unit owners creating CDRCs for more information.
Under the BidCarbon Standard Scheme, all signed statements, forms, certificates, reports, photos and invoices must be retained for a minimum period of 5 years after certificates are created.
