Deforestation & Legality Regulations
International regulations governing the trade of commodities linked to deforestation and illegal harvesting. We provide training and compliance support for all major frameworks.
EUDR — What You Can Do Now
The December 2026 enforcement date is confirmed, but the compliance framework is still taking shape. The Commission's simplification review (due April 2026) may adjust requirements, the IT system for due diligence submissions is not yet operational, and key implementing acts are pending. At this stage, training is the most effective step — it prepares your team to act quickly once procedures are finalized, regardless of how the final details land.
In-Force Regulations — Ready to Deploy
For regulations already in force — EUTR, UKTR, Lacey Act, SWISTR, and the Australian Illegal Logging Prohibition — compliance frameworks are well-established. We offer audit support, due diligence systems, and digital compliance platforms ready for immediate deployment.
Companies operating in global supply chains must comply with multiple overlapping regulations depending on their markets. Understanding each regulation's requirements is essential for building an effective compliance strategy.
