Frequently asked questions

Does FLEGT licence exempt me from EUDR?

No. FLEGT covers legality; EUDR requires legality AND deforestation-free (post 31 Dec 2020) with geolocation. Indonesian SVLK-FLEGT timber still needs an EUDR DDS with plot geolocation. The Commission is discussing partial recognition but it is not yet in force.
