The EU Regulation on Deforestation-Free Supply Chains (EUDR)

The EU Deforestation Regulation, or EUDR for short, is a global step towards greater forest protection. Companies must meet various requirements in order to reduce global deforestation and protect primary forests.

Who is affected by the EU Deforestation Regulation?

Companies that import, place on the European market or export one or more of the affected raw materials or specific derived products:

Wood

Cocoa

Rubber

Cattle

Palm oil

Coffee

Soy

How to Comply:

Obligations

Risk Assessments

Conduct risk analyses: one for the country of origin, including documentation and specific assessments, and another for deforestation-free products using satellite data.

Due Diligence Statement (DDS)

Market participants, traders, and exporters are required to submit a Due Diligence Statement (DDS) for EUDR-relevant goods, including the geolocation and production period of each product.

Compliance with Local Regulations

Ensure adherence to all relevant social and environmental regulations in the country of production.

Deforestation-Free Production

Verify that no forests have been cleared or converted for production purposes, ensuring deforestation-free processes.

Sanctions and Audits

National Authorities

Member states must conduct regular monitoring and audits to ensure compliance with the regulation.

Sanctions

Companies that fail to comply face fines of up to 4% of their annual turnover in the EU, as well as product and income confiscation measures .

Core elements of our solution for EUDR

Data Collection
for EUDR

Collect geospatial and time data for production or harvesting intuitively, and perform plausibility checks through a mobile app, Supplier Portal, and standard interfaces for seamless integration and monitoring.

Risk Analysis:
Legality Assessment

Automated assessment to identify potential compliance risks with EUDR and local regulations, utilizing country and industry indexes. Mitigation is achieved through supplier and product certificates and detailed questionnaires.

Risk Analysis:
Deforestation Assessment

Automated assessment to identify potential risks of deforestation, forest degradation, and land conversion to agriculture. Features include false positive handling, land use conversion verification, and case management.

DDS Preparation
and Submission

Automated generation and submission of the Due Diligence Statement (DDS) to the EU, streamlined data exchange for EUDR products with the downstream supply chain, and comprehensive documentation of all EUDR-related processes for audit purposes.

Data Collection

Supplier Portal

The supplier portal includes accounts for direct suppliers, allowing for the management of orders, data requests, and land parcels. Standard interfaces are integrated to transmit EUDR-relevant data from suppliers and forward it to customers. Additionally, a mobile app enables the collection of polygon data and harvest timings directly from producers, ensuring ease of use for both direct and indirect suppliers.

Risk Analysis

Legality Assessment

The integration of master data incorporates business partner information, including NACE codes and country of origin. An abstract risk analysis is conducted based on indices, followed by a concrete risk analysis that includes the integration of evidence and the dispatch of questionnaires.

Risk Analysis

Deforestation Assessment

Order or product information is transmitted by transferring relevant order positions or product details from the ERP system. Suppliers receive requests for the necessary information, and information is provided per order and for each product along with its validity period. The deforestation risk analysis involves reconciling stock data as of a specific date, performing time series analysis for forest disturbances, and conducting dedicated checks for unauthorized land conversions. In cases of known risk, a report is generated.

Technical Implementation

DDS Preparation and Submission

A new Due Diligence Statement (DDS) is automatically generated, incorporating relevant data such as risk assessments, product data, geolocations, harvest dates, product parameters, and verifying the accuracy of product information. The risk overview assesses the legality and deforestation risk in relation to the products contained within the DDS. The DDS is submitted to the EU information system by creating a file from the consolidated EUDR data and conveniently transmitting the DDS to the EU information system via API.

Case management

Risk Mitigation

In cases of increased risk, the osapiens HUB for EUDR integrates information about risk-mitigating circumstances, such as product or supplier certifications, along with details for individual case management (e.g., questionnaires). To further facilitate and automate risk mitigation, osapiens HUB for EUDR utilizes existing certificates as risk mitigation measures by reducing the respective EUDR risk dimensions.

Frequently Asked Questions About the EU Deforestation Regulation (EUDR)

According to the EUDR, all market participants and traders who place the following goods on the EU market or export them from the EU must equally prove that their products do not come from recently deforested areas or have contributed to forest degradation: soy, cattle, palm oil, wood, cocoa, coffee, rubber, and some of their derived products, such as leather, chocolate, tires, or furniture. The EUDR aims to ensure that the products consumed by EU citizens do not contribute to global deforestation or forest degradation. The main goal is to stop the expansion of agricultural land for the production of the aforementioned products.

The EUDR requires that any company dealing in one or more of the seven products listed, importing to or exporting from the EU - and there is a possibility that more products may be added to the list after a review by the EU - must prove that their products are deforestation-free and produced in compliance with the laws of the producing country. Various aspects such as land use, labor and human rights will be considered. In addition, companies are required to submit a Due Diligence Statement for their products. This obligation applies regardless of whether the company is from the EU and covers both legal and illegal deforestation within and outside the EU.

The EUDR provides clear sanctions for violations, including fines of up to 4% of a company's annual EU turnover. In addition, the product concerned, or the proceeds of a related transaction may be confiscated. Other sanctions include temporary exclusion from public tenders and access to public funds, temporary prohibition from placing, supplying or exporting the relevant goods or products, and prohibition from using the simplified due diligence procedure.

The competent authorities of each Member State check the due diligence statement and related documents before customs clearance. The likelihood of an inspection depends on the risk that the goods do not comply with the regulations. In Germany, the Federal Agency for Agriculture and Food (Bundesanstalt für Landwirtschaft und Ernährung, BLE) has already been designated as the "competent authority" for the implementation of the Regulation.
