EU Commission Holds Line on Deforestation Regulation Start Date
The European Commission has proposed simplifications to the EU Deforestation Regulation (EUDR) and confirmed its application from January 2026.
The EUDR aims to ensure products sold in Europe, such as coffee, cocoa, and palm oil, do not come from land where forests have been destroyed or produced in violation of local laws.
