ITC News

The International Trade Centre (ITC) has published a list of key criteria to support informed decision making among EUDR tools and technological solutions.  

Navigating a multitude of providers  

With the application of the EU Deforestation-free Products Regulation (EUDR) from 30 December 2024, a large range of tools and technological solutions have entered the market to support compliance.  

These cover some or all of the seven commodities and derived products in scope of the regulation and vary widely regarding functionalities.  

A checklist for informed decision making 

ITC’s Checklist on EUDR Tools and Technological Solutions (which can be downloaded here) offers an overview of key considerations to better understand and assess these offerings.  

The list maps criteria to assess if the approaches address: 

  • Essential requirements

  • Key requirements of the Due Diligence Process

  • Additional considerations

Through increasing understanding of the offer, this tool aims to enable informed decision-making and increase transparency for players considering adopting solutions aiding EUDR compliance.  

Result of a collaborative process  

A large number of partners were involved in the formulation, review and finalization of this Checklist. Thank you for all the comments and experiences that have been shared with us!
