Kohtas Marketplace

At Kohtas, we've built a Marketplace where the sellers are leading accounting (Big4) and legal firms with unparalleled expertise in global regulations. They curate and update regulation rules and risk assessments on a daily basis, ensuring the data we provide is always accurate and up-to-date.

With our unique business model, you only pay when you do business in the EU, and we take a percentage commission from each transaction. This approach not only is cost-effective but also allows you to switch from fixed regulation information costs to variable costs.

What is the most challenging aspect of the EUDR?


What does "relevant legislation of the country of production" mean?

Relevant commodities and products can only be placed on the EU market if they are deforestation-free and comply with the relevant legislation of the country of production, Art. 3 (b), Art. 2 (40) EUDR.

"Relevant legislation" may include, among others, national laws (including relevant secondary law) and jurisprudence as well as international law as applicable in domestic law. The Regulation presents a non-exhaustive list of legislative areas without specifying particular legal acts, as these differ from country to country and may be subject to amendments. According to the definition, the legislation listed in letters (a) to (h) must be interpreted as being linked to the area of production. For the legislation on environmental protection, the meaning and purpose stipulated in Art. 1 EUDR should be taken into account. Therefore, legislation with a link to the protection of forests, the reduction of greenhouse gas emissions or the protection of biodiversity is relevant.

Relevant documentation is required for the purposes of the risk assessment, Art. 9 (1) (h), 10 EUDR. Such documentation may, for example, consist of official documents from public authorities, contractual agreements, court decisions or impact assessments and audits carried out. In any case, the operator has to verify that these documents are verifiable and reliable, taking into account the risk of corruption in the country of production.

The Commission will issue a specific guidance document on legality in due course.
