SBTi Criteria and Recommendations
TWG-INF-002 | Version 5.0 | October 2021
1. Introduction
All of the criteria listed below must be met in order for target(s) to be recognized by the Science
Based Targets initiative (SBTi). In addition, companies must follow the GHG Protocol Corporate
Standard, Scope 2 Guidance, and Corporate Value Chain (Scope 3) Accounting and Reporting
Standard. SBTi recommendations are important for transparency and best practice, but are not
required. These criteria apply only to companies that are not classified as financial institutions
and Small and Medium Enterprises (SMEs). Financial institutions can set targets using the
SBTi criteria and guidance for financial institutions. SMEs should use the streamlined process
to set targets in line with climate science.
The Target Validation Protocol describes the underlying principles, process, and criteria
followed to assess targets and to determine conformance with the SBTi Criteria. The SBTi
strongly recommends that companies review Table 7 in the Target Validation Protocol that
further details SBTi criteria compliance and non-compliance before commencing target
development. Furthermore, SBTi Criteria and Recommendations Version 5.0 should be read in
conjunction with the Target Validation Protocol.
While every effort is made to keep companies informed of the latest criteria and
recommendations, the initiative reserves the right to make adjustments as needed to
reflect the most recent emissions scenarios, partner organization policies, and
greenhouse gas accounting practices.
The initiative also reserves the right to withdraw the validation of an approved target if it
becomes apparent that incorrect information was communicated during the target validation
process that results in any of the criteria existing during the assessment not being met, or if
requirements following the approval of the target are not respected (i.e. target progress
reporting and recalculations).
Unless otherwise noted (including specific sections), all criteria apply to scopes 1, 2, and 3.
2. Effective Dates of Updated Criteria
This criteria version 5.0 will be in effect as of July 15th, 2022. All submissions received by the
SBTi prior to July 15th, 2022 can be assessed against criteria version 4.2 or 5.0. Criteria,
recommendations and best practices denoted with an asterisk (*) are refinements and additions
to clarifications of pre-existing criteria and recommendations.
