EU Deforestation Regulation (EUDR) Due Diligence System Verification

Confirm and demonstrate your EUDR compliance with independent, end-to-end EUDR due diligence system verification from SGS.

The EUDR requires operators and traders placing relevant commodities and products on the EU market to operate a robust due diligence system. Demonstrating that your system meets every regulatory requirement, from information collection to risk mitigation, can be complex.

Our EUDR due diligence system verification provides a comprehensive, independent review of your system, verifying that it meets all regulatory requirements. Our global network of EUDR experts uses a detailed checklist to assess every aspect of your system, from management system requirements and due diligence processes to stakeholder communication. The service includes initial and annual surveillance audits and, upon successful completion, a confirmation statement valid for five years.
