EU Parliament confirms Deforestation Regulation delay until late 2026
MEPs are also seeking another review of the EUDR by May 2026 – meaning more changes could be on the horizon.
Members of the European Parliament have approved a series of amendments to the Deforestation Regulation (EUDR) – including another one-year delay.
Large companies under the law’s remit will now have until December 30, 2026 to comply, while smaller operators will only be required to comply from June 30, 2027. The European Parliament is aligned with the EU Council’s position on the matter, meaning the delay should come into force by the end of 2025.
