SUMMARY OF THE EUROPEAN REGULATION TO COMBAT DEFORESTATION – EUDR
Detalles
The new Regulation lays down rules on the placing on the Union market, placing on the market and exporting from the Union market, certain products. The aim of these rules is to minimise the Union's contribution to deforestation and forest degradation worldwide, as well as the Union's contribution to greenhouse gas emissions and global biodiversity loss.
The regulation affects products listed in Annex I (referred to as relevant products) that contain or have been made using the relevant raw materials, namely cattle, cocoa, coffee, oil palm, rubber, soya or timber, as well as cattle that have been fed with these raw materials, and imposes obligations on operators and traders who deal with them.
