CA AB 1305 Compliance Solutions
California’s Voluntary Carbon Market Disclosures Business Regulation Act (AB 1305) took effect on January 1, 2024, and applies to companies that market or sell voluntary carbon offsets in California, companies that purchase or use carbon offsets to make climate-related claims (such as carbon neutrality or net-zero emissions), and companies that make any climate-related emission claims within California. Even businesses based outside California may be subject to AB 1305 if they interact with California customers or make climate claims that reach the California market.
Affected companies must provide detailed, annually updated disclosures on their websites, which include project details, accountability measures, and third-party verification.
