Understanding the New EU Deforestation Regulation (EUDR)

Steps to Compliance

To comply with the EU Deforestation Regulation (EUDR), businesses must take the following steps:

1. Understand your role and obligations – are your products in scope? What are your responsibilities?
2. Ensure you can trace the origin of your products to confirm they are deforestation-free
3. Implement a due diligence system which includes information gathering, risk assessment / mitigation and reporting as required by the EUDR
