Commodity scope
Seven commodities. Product scope follows Annex I.
EUDR applies only to relevant products identified by the applicable CN/HS codes—not automatically to every derived product.
CocoaRelevant commodity
CoffeeRelevant commodity
Oil palmRelevant commodity
RubberRelevant commodity
SoyaRelevant commodity
WoodRelevant commodity
Coverage depends on the relevant product description and CN/HS code in the latest version of EUDR Annex I.
The legal test
Three conditions must be satisfied.
Before a relevant product is placed on, made available on, or exported from the EU market, it must meet all three Article 3 conditions.
Deforestation-free
Produced on land not subject to deforestation after 31 December 2020, with forest-degradation rules also applying to wood.
Legally produced
Produced in accordance with the relevant legislation of the country of production, supported by verifiable evidence.
Covered by a declaration
Covered by the applicable Due Diligence Statement or simplified declaration submitted through the EU Information System.
Official due diligence process
Collect. Assess. Mitigate.
Reporting and system submission document the outcome; they are not a fourth due-diligence step.
- 1Information collection
Product, quantity, origin, suppliers, customers, geolocation, production date and supporting evidence.
- 2Risk assessment
Evaluate country risk, forest presence, supply-chain complexity, information reliability and other Article 10 criteria.
- 3Risk mitigation
Where risk is not negligible, obtain additional evidence, conduct surveys or audits, and apply proportionate controls.
Then confirm due diligenceSubmit the applicable declaration before placing the product on the EU market or lodging the customs declaration.
Southeast Asia market focusVerify the current EU country benchmark
One region. Different production-country risk levels.
Trans Cert supports producers, processors, exporters and EU customers sourcing across Southeast Asia. The country of production—not the trading or trans-shipment hub—determines which EUDR risk classification applies.
Low risk
Brunei, Lao PDR, Philippines, Singapore, Thailand, Timor-Leste and Vietnam
Standard risk
Cambodia, Indonesia and Malaysia
High risk
Myanmar
Evidence handoverTypical roles
SEA producer / processor / exporter
Provides origin, plot, production, legality, traceability and deforestation-free evidence.
EU operator / importer
Exercises due diligence and submits the applicable declaration before market placement or import.
Exact responsibility depends on the legal entity, transaction and supply-chain role.
TRANS EUDR services
Turn supply-chain data into review-ready evidence.
Our work is structured around the records your customer, operator or assurance team will need to examine—not a generic checklist.
01
EUDR readiness assessment
Identify applicable products, roles, data gaps and priority actions before the regulation applies.
02
Supply-chain data review
Map suppliers, facilities, plots, batches and information flows across the relevant supply chain.
03
Geolocation & traceability verification
Review plot coordinates, polygon data, production dates and the link between origin and shipment.
04
Deforestation-free evidence review
Evaluate maps, satellite evidence and records against the 31 December 2020 cut-off date.
05
Legality documentation review
Assess relevant licences, land-use rights, permits and other country-of-production evidence.
06
Risk assessment & mitigation support
Structure risk evaluation, document conclusions and define proportionate mitigation actions.

How we work
A focused four-stage engagement.
This is the Trans Cert service workflow, separate from the three legal due-diligence steps above.
Scope
Confirm products, HS codes, entities and supply-chain roles.
Diagnose
Identify missing plot, supplier, legality and shipment evidence.
Verify
Test traceability, documents and risk conclusions.
Report
Issue findings, action priorities and a verification record.
Clear positioning. No false assurance.
TRANS EUDR is an independent readiness and verification service. It is not an EU certification scheme and does not replace an operator’s legal responsibility, due diligence system or declaration.
Frequently asked questions
What exporters and EU customers usually ask first.
Product scope and responsibility should always be confirmed against the latest legal text and the actual transaction.
Official EU EUDR resourcesIs MSPO, RSPO, FSC or PEFC certification enough for EUDR?
Certification and third-party verified information can support an EUDR evidence package, but they do not automatically replace the operator’s due diligence obligations, product-level traceability or the applicable declaration in the EU Information System.
Who normally submits the Due Diligence Statement?
For products entering the EU, the EU operator or importer normally submits the applicable declaration before the customs declaration is lodged. Southeast Asian producers and exporters typically provide the origin, geolocation, legality and traceability evidence needed by that operator.
How does EUDR country benchmarking affect Southeast Asia?
Under the current benchmark, Brunei, Lao PDR, Philippines, Singapore, Thailand, Timor-Leste and Vietnam are listed as low risk; Cambodia, Indonesia and Malaysia remain standard risk; and Myanmar is listed as high risk. The relevant classification follows the country where the commodity was produced, not a later trading hub.
What is the EUDR deforestation cut-off date?
Relevant commodities must not have been produced on land subject to deforestation after 31 December 2020. For wood, the forest-degradation requirements also apply.
Does EUDR cover every product made from the seven commodities?
No. Scope depends on the current product entries and CN/HS codes in Annex I. A product-scope check should be completed before collecting evidence or making a compliance claim.
