Pick your product from the 76 CN codes in Annex I to Regulation (EU) 2023/1115 — consolidated as at 26 December 2025, including Regulation (EU) 2025/2650 — state your role in the chain and your size, and the check determines your regime (full or simplified) with the matching compliance deadline and the attention points relevant to your case.
The deforestation regulation does not impose the same obligations on everyone. Whether you carry the full due diligence obligation or follow the simplified trader regime depends on three things: which product you place on the market, which role you play in the chain and how large your undertaking is. A large trader is treated as an operator under Art. 5(2) — exactly the kind of nuance an in-house reading tends to lose.
This check answers those three questions and nothing more. It determines your regime, your size class and your deadline, and flags the attention points that come with that outcome. It does not assess country-of-origin risk, verify geolocation data or chain documentation, establish whether your product is deforestation-free, or submit a due diligence statement. The report states the tool version and the dataset vintage used, so every outcome remains traceable to the code list and thresholds it rests on.
