The PEFC EUDR DDS standard module: consultation and information webinar

26 April 2024 EU Deforestation Regulation

There are still a few days to go for you to give your feedback on the new PEFC EUDR DDS standard module, deadline for comments is 7 May 2024. To get an introduction to this new module, watch our recent webinar recording.

We developed the PEFC EUDR Due Diligence System (DDS) to help our PEFC chain of custody certified organisations comply with their EUDR obligations.

This voluntary tool will be easily integrated within the current PEFC chain of custody processes, with companies deciding whether they implement the ST 2002 chain of custody DDS or replace it with the PEFC EUDR DDS, at product group level.

An introduction to the PEFC EUDR DDS standard module

We held a special information webinar, on 27 March and 24 April, to introduce the PEFC EUDR DDS and answer your questions.

We were joined by hundreds of interested stakeholders, including chain of custody certified companies and certification bodies, who asked our PEFC EUDR experts dozens of questions. We will shortly update our PEFC EUDR FAQ document to cover the key questions received during the webinar.

The consultation

Public consultations are a vital part of the development process of our standards. They are when you can read the draft standard, make your comments, and give direct feedback. Every comment made will get an answer.

The consultation is open until 7 May. Please fill in this form to receive the link to the draft standard module.
