What do I do now?

EUDR applies to this code

Country of origin

The risk tier determines how strict the due diligence obligations are under EUDR. Low risk: simplified. Standard: usual checks. High risk: enhanced controls.

Because EUDR applies to this code
  1. Prepare a Due Diligence Statement (DDS)

    First confirm your product matches the ex-qualifier text. Then prepare a Due Diligence Statement (DDS) in TRACES NT before placing the goods on the EU market.
