EUDR instructions for Chinese Suppliers

The Deforestation Regulation (EUDR)（注） imposes new requirements on companies placing and/or supplying the EU relevant commodities e.g. wood and rubber or relevant products that have been produced using them such as paper products, and accessories made of natural rubber. The EUDR will apply from December 30, 2024.
《砍伐森林条例》 (EUDR)对出售和/或供应欧盟相关商品(如木材和橡胶)或使用这些材料生产的相关产品(如纸制品和由天然橡胶制成的配件)的公司提出了新的要求。 EUDR将于2024年12月30日起实施。

Compliance of EUDR is required for all entities (Company) identified within the supply chain from initial harvest of wood/rubber down to the entity(company)responsible for importing those products into the EU market. Failure to comply could lead to exclusion as a supplier as, from 30th December, 2024, all products/commodities placed into the EU market must have an accompanying due diligence statement.
从最初的木材/橡胶收割到负责将这些产品进口到欧盟市场的实体（公司） ，在供应链中确定的所有实体(公司)都需要遵守EUDR。如果不遵守规定，可能会被排除在供应商之外，因为从2024年12月30日起，所有进入欧盟市场的产品/商品必须附带尽职调查声明。

The EUDR will affect any natural or legal person who, in the course of business, places (imports) those relevant commodities or products on the EU market or supplies them to the EU market (for distribution, consumption or use). It will therefore concern a large number of entities (company)。
该条例会影响任何在经营过程中将有关商品或产出售(进口)欧盟市场或向欧盟市场供应(配送、消费或使用)的自然人或法人。因此，它将涉及大量实体（公司）。

The due diligence statement will need to be supplied to any downstream customers before the product or commodity is imported into the EU market*.
