Abstract

On November 17, 2021, the European Union (EU) Commission published a proposal for the EU Deforestation-free products Regulation (EUDR). The EUDR builds on the EU Timber Regulation (EUTR) and the mandatory Due Diligence System (DDS) that operators have to have in place is similar to the EUTR DDS. The implementation of a new regulation can be perceived as complex by operators responsible for demonstrating compliance. The absence of a well-researched approach for obtaining EUTR and EUDR DDS compliance motivated this study. A qualitative research technique is used to investigate EUTR and additional planned EUDR approaches to achieve DDS compliance. As a result, a practical framework is presented that highlights approaches and methods for achieving EUTR DDS and EUDR DDS compliance. It extends on the limited research on EUDR DDS requirements as well as on the EUTR and EUDR operator compliance process. Moreover, the study sheds light on how operators overcome challenges that may arise.
