WEETRA can examine the documentary and evidentiary basis of a CBAM file within an engagement led by a legal adviser, customs professional or other trusted intermediary.
The end client remains the client of its adviser. WEETRA provides a defined documentary and evidentiary review within the agreed mandate and does not assume the adviser’s legal, customs or client-management responsibilities. The review can therefore sit inside an existing adviser-led engagement without creating a second advisory relationship or changing who owns the client strategy, the legal analysis or the customs procedure.
Legal interpretation remains with legal counsel. Customs classification, representation and filing remain with the relevant customs professional or authorised declarant. Accredited verification remains with an appropriately accredited verifier. WEETRA is responsible for the scope and quality of its own review and for the institutional conclusion it issues. Direct contact with the end client, producer or supplier occurs only where the mandate expressly provides for it. The adviser retains control of the client relationship, legal interpretation, customs strategy and any decision on how WEETRA findings are used.
It allows an adviser to add a specialised evidence-review capability without building a separate internal review system or transferring the client relationship. The result can be used as a structured documentary state for further legal, customs, verification or management work. It adds depth without fragmenting responsibility across parallel advisers.

The review record is prepared to be usable in subsequent professional review. It gives the adviser a structured account of the sources examined, the findings, the unresolved limitations, the remediation history where applicable and the basis of the WEETRA Determination.
A fast first evidentiary reading when the adviser wants to know whether the file warrants a full review and at what depth.
A bounded documentary review when the question is what the existing file currently supports.
A deeper evidence-chain review when several sources, suppliers, installations or contradictions must be reconciled and remediated.
A forensic and adversarial review where the claim chain is complex, disputed or expected to face deeper scrutiny.

By default, communications can remain routed through the adviser. Where direct clarification with the end client, producer or supplier would materially improve the evidence record, that contact occurs only within the agreed mandate. WEETRA’s role is complementary and does not create a parallel advisory relationship by default.
