Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive (CSRD) Pre-Verification
Helping You Meet Sustainability Reporting Standards
To steer financial flows into sustainable activities and accelerate the sustainable transformation, significant changes have been made to improve the accuracy and transparency of organizational reporting of sustainability measures and results.
Modernizing and strengthening the rules under which companies report social and environmental information, the European Union’s Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive (CSRD) has added the new European Sustainability Reporting Standards (ESRS) framework.
DEKRA offers Pre-Verification services to help you identify gaps and take effective action to ensure compliance with the Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive (CSRD).

The DEKRA CSRD Pre-Verification at a Glance
Our comprehensive pre-verification helps companies subject to the Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive (CSRD) ensure compliance with the recently adapted European Sustainability Reporting Standards (ESRS). The adopted standards provide an effective tool for business leaders accurately and transparently documenting their sustainability efforts to highlight responsible best practices and bring added value to their brand.
Covering the full range of environmental, social and governance (ESG) issues, the ESRS provide investors relevant stakeholders information so they can clearly understand proven impacts of companies already receiving or applying for their support. We provide the pre-assessment of your materiality analysis and sustainability reporting so you can identify areas in need of improvement, instill confidence and add credibility to your efforts and validated results. We take a strategic readiness approach allowing you to chart your course and seamlessly execute operations.
