EUDR Enforcement: 100 Days Left

This article outlines five common compliance gaps involving upstream transaction documents, BOM completion, material-balance data, transaction timelines, and forest traceability. Addressing these issues can help importers prepare their DDS and reduce the risk of order rejection, shipment delays, and document rework.
Under the EU Deforestation free Products Regulation (EUDR), full enforcement will apply to large and medium sized operators starting from 30 December 2026. The countdown is less than 100 days.

In case of non compliance, EU importers may face border detention, mandatory product recalls, public naming and shaming, and fines of up to 4 % of their annual EU wide turnover. For Chinese manufacturers, the real consequences include customers being unable to submit the DDS, order rejections and blocked shipments.

Within the full compliance chain, most Chinese factories are not the party that directly submits the DDS. Instead, their role is to enable EU importers to submit the DDS successfully. The core obligation of suppliers is to provide a complete, consistent and verifiable chain of evidence.

As a professional wooden tableware manufacturer, Dalian Greenwood has identified five major deficiencies that commonly cause document rework and compliance blockages:
1.Missing upstream transaction documents 
2.Non standard BOM completion
3.Inconsistent material balance data 
4.Chronological conflicts in transaction records
5.Insufficient forest traceability information
