With the EU Deforestation Regulation (EUDR) entering into application on 30 December 2024, supply chain actors are doing their utmost to be ready to comply with the requirements of the regulation. However, time is running out fast and many practical implementation questions and legal uncertainties are awaiting necessary clarification.
We urge the Commission and Member States to provide legal clarity for companies and producers to be able to work out solutions that are in line with the EUDR requirements and avoid excessive disruptions in the functioning of commodity supply chains.
