EU Member States’ competent authorities are tasked with conducting checks to confirm that relevant commodities and products, intended for market placement or exportation, originate from deforestation-free land and were legally produced (per their obligation under Art. 16).
Checks encompass validating due diligence statements and assessing overall operator and trader compliance with Regulation provisions.
