EUDR Compliance Guide: Single Estate Property Scenarios

Geolocation Requirements

Plot Identification

  • Specific production plot geolocation required
  • Based on "plot of land" definition
  • Within single real estate property
  • Production area boundaries needed

Deforestation Scenarios

Separate Plot Deforestation

  • Legal deforestation outside production area
  • No impact if different commodity
  • Risk assessment needed for same commodity
  • Mixing risk consideration required

Multiple Commodity Production

  1. Different Commodities
    • Separate compliance assessment
    • Plot-specific evaluation
    • Independent compliance status
  2. Same Commodity
    • Risk assessment required
    • Mixing risk evaluation
    • Property-wide consideration
    • Negligible risk requirement

Legal Compliance Framework

Property-Wide Requirements

  • Overall property legal status matters
  • Illegal activities affect all products
  • Property-wide compliance needed
  • No plot isolation possible

Impact Assessment

  • Illegal activities anywhere affect compliance
  • Property-wide legal requirements
  • No compartmentalization possible
  • All products affected by illegality

Specific Scenarios

Production Plot (Area B)

  • Requires specific geolocation
  • Subject to compliance requirements
  • Part of larger property context
  • Individual assessment needed

Deforested Area (Area C)

  • Impact depends on commodity production
  • Legal deforestation assessment
  • Mixing risk consideration
  • Property-wide legal implications

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: What geolocation information is required?

A: Only the geolocation of the specific plot where the commodity is produced.

Q: Does legal deforestation elsewhere on the property affect compliance?

A: Only if the same commodity is produced in both areas or if it affects the property's legal status.

Q: Can different commodities on the same property have different compliance status?

A: Yes, unless property-wide legal issues exist.

Q: What makes a product non-compliant?

A: Either non-compliance at the production plot or illegal activities affecting the entire property's legal status.
