Due diligence for CN 15162010
Before you place CN 15162010 on the EU market or export it, you file a due diligence statement that the oil palm in it is deforestation-free and legally produced (Art. 4). You collect the geolocation of every plot it came from and the date of production (Art. 9). Annex I lists this line with ex, so it covers only the goods made from oil palm.
Delegated Regulation (EU) 2026/2102 added this line, and it applies from 30 Dec 2027 whatever the size of your company.
By country of production
| Country risk | Due diligence | Minimum checks |
|---|---|---|
| Low | Simplified, no risk assessment (Art. 13) | 1% |
| Standard | Full risk assessment and mitigation (Art. 10, 11) | 3% |
| High | Full risk assessment and mitigation (Art. 10, 11) | 9% |
