The Information System of the Deforestation Regulation

The Information System is a specialised online tool of the TRACES platform. It allows operators and their authorised representatives to create Due Diligence Statements and Simplified Declarations, and submit them to the relevant authorities to show that their products do not cause deforestation, in compliance with the Deforestation Regulation.

The Information System functions pursuant to the Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) 2024/3084, which whose update will be adopted and published shortly.

PRODUCTION Server 

Access the PRODUCTION server of the Information System to create Due Diligence Statements and Simplified Declarations.

Due Diligence Statements and Simplified Declarations submitted in the LIVE server have legal value and their content can be subject to checks by Competent Authorities.


ACCEPTANCE Server

Access the ACCEPTANCE server of the Information System for training, familiarisation and testing. 

The ACCEPTANCE server is a replica of the PRODUCTION server with the same functionalities. Submissions in the ACCEPTANCE server do not have legal value and cannot be used for demonstrating compliance with EUDR.

Please note that registering an account in one environment (e.g. ACCEPTANCE server) does not automatically grant access or registration in the other environment (e.g. PRODUCTION server). Users should complete separate registrations for each environment, as required.

The EUDR Information System

Any operator and their authorised representatives and traders may use the publicly available online version of the Information System. This is where operators declare that due diligence has been performed before placing on the EU market or exporting such products that are in scope of the EU Deforestation Regulation.

You will be able manage your Due Diligence Statements or Simplified Declarations also in bulk by using a machine-to-machine connection to the Information System via an Application Programming Interface (API).

The API reference documentation for economic operators integrating with the EUDR Information System is publicly available on CIRCABC.

Please note: Users developing APIs should consult the CIRCABC folder regularly for updates.
