EUDR

EUDR compliance: What you need to know

Ensure sustainability and compliance with the EU Deforestation Regulation (EUDR).

What

Traceability is the new norm

The EU Deforestation Regulation (EUDR) is transforming how businesses manage their supply chains. It targets key commodities that are linked to deforestation: cacao, coffee, palm oil, soy, timber and rubber.

If you deal in any of these, EUDR regulations will impact your business directly. To comply, full traceability and due diligence are no longer optional—they’re essential.

Core EUDR requirements

The EUDR comes with specific requirements aimed at reducing deforestation and ensuring that products are legally produced.

Deforestation-free

Your products must not be linked to deforestation or forest degradation after December 30, 2020. Even if deforestation was legal in the country of origin at the time, the new regulation requires that products be traceable to ensure they were not sourced from deforested land post-2020

Deforestation-free

Legally produced

All products must comply with the relevant laws in the country where they were produced. This includes meeting environmental, land-use, and human rights regulations specific to the region.

Due dilligence

You must conduct a thorough risk assessment for each product and provide a due diligence statement to prove compliance. This documentation will need to be submitted to authorities for review.
