Anticipated EU Data Protection Regulation Compliance in 2025: Preview and Preparation Strategies
The European Union's Deforestation Regulation (EUDR) is set to become a reality by December 30, 2025, and businesses involved in the production, import, processing, or sale of certain commodities, such as cattle, cocoa, coffee, palm oil, rubber, soy, and wood, need to prepare for this significant change.
To aid in this transition, a new platform, the 'Our Product EUDR Compliance Platform,' has been designed to help businesses align with the EUDR mandate. This innovative solution streamlines the workflow from plot to port, making it possible to stay compliant and competitive without getting overwhelmed by checklists and spreadsheets.
The platform provides a user-friendly FAQ section to help businesses understand the EUDR regulation and its impact on their operations. It also uses built-in risk intelligence to classify locations, flag discrepancies, and issue real-time alerts for non-compliance.
Every batch of product must be traced to its exact origin, down to the piece of land it was grown or harvested on. The platform automates real-time field-to-export traceability, captures geolocation data, and generates due diligence statements (DDS) for EUDR submission.
Companies must collect geolocation data, verify land-use legality, and submit due diligence statements to EU authorities. The platform integrates seamlessly with procurement platforms, input inventory, and lab testing systems, making data collection and submission a breeze.
The EUDR introduces a risk classification system, with countries and regions classified as low risk, standard risk, or high risk, affecting the level of due diligence required. Companies will face routine audits depending on the risk level of their sourcing region, and must store all documentation and traceability data for 5 years.
Non-compliance with EUDR can result in fines, blocked imports, and legal liability for both operators and traders. However, with the help of digital traceability platforms like the 'Our Product EUDR Compliance Platform,' businesses can detect and fix issues before they escalate, protecting their brand, certifications, and margins.
The platform offers a free trial for users to experience its features and benefits. By simplifying the EUDR workflow, this innovative solution is poised to help businesses stay ahead of the curve and maintain their competitive edge in the global market.
