The EU Deforestation Regulation (EUDR)
The countdown has started — is your supply chain ready?

EUDR (EU 2023/1115) requires products placed on the EU market to be proven deforestation-free, degradation-free and legally sourced. Non-compliance = no access to the EU market. We provide exporters with an end-to-end compliance service, from gap analysis to full implementation.

The Three Core Requirements of EUDR

Before any in-scope product enters the EU market, operators and large traders must complete due diligence

🚫

Deforestation-free

The land used to produce the product must not have been subject to deforestation or forest degradation after 31 December 2020. Verified through satellite imagery and plot geolocation.

📍

Geolocation Traceability

Geographic coordinates must be provided for every plot of land where the commodity was produced (polygons for larger plots). This is the single hardest requirement of EUDR — traceability down to the specific harvest/plantation plot.

⚖️

Legal Sourcing

Production must comply with the laws of the country of production, including land use rights, environmental protection, labour rights, human rights, tax, trade and customs regulations.

Key Dates

The EU has postponed twice — but the final deadline is set, and the window is closing fast

June 2023
EUDR enters into force (EU 2023/1115), originally to apply from 30 December 2024
December 2024
Amending Regulation (EU) 2024/3234: application postponed by 12 months
December 2025
Amending Regulation (EU) 2025/2650 (405 votes in Parliament, Council approved): postponed by another 12 months, with simplified obligations — only the operator first placing products on the EU market files a Due Diligence Statement; downstream companies only collect and retain DDS reference numbers
July 2026
Commission adopts delegated act updating Annex I product scope (leather/retreaded tyres removed; soluble coffee and some palm-oil derivatives added) and implementing act on the information system; the full simplification package (guidance + FAQs) is complete
30 December 2026
Application to large and medium-sized enterprises (including downstream operators and traders of all sizes; micro/small enterprises already under EUTR also apply) — the Due Diligence Statement (DDS) becomes a mandatory EU market-access document
30 June 2027
Micro and small enterprises and others come into scope; new product categories (e.g. soluble coffee) added from 30 December 2027
⚠️ Now
Only 3 months left for large/medium companies: start immediately with supply chain mapping → plot geolocation → documentation → DDS dry run. Supply chain traceability is the most time-consuming part — the earlier you start, the lower the cost. Read the full regulation guide →
