Program Overview: What is EU Deforestation Regulation (EUDR) Compliance?
EU Deforestation Regulation (EUDR) Compliance is Edstellar's instructor-led program for procurement, supply chain, and compliance teams trading in covered commodities. Participants learn EUDR foundations and timelines, commodity scope and operator roles, geolocation and evidence gathering, risk assessment and mitigation, and due diligence statements and records. The program is built for companies that must prove their products are deforestation-free.
Training works on the team's real supply chains. Participants map their commodity flows against EUDR scope, practice geolocation evidence collection for actual sourcing regions, and run risk assessments with mitigation plans in guided labs. Instructors with trade compliance experience review every due diligence file, checking it against what enforcement will demand. The program closes with a capstone: the EUDR readiness lab.
Most companies underestimate the evidence burden: geolocation data they don't have, suppliers who can't provide it, and due diligence statements with no records behind them. This program teaches your team to build the evidence chain before the deadline, with risk assessments that hold up and records that prove the claim. Every exercise works the commodities you actually trade.
The capstone is a readiness lab on the team's own product lines: commodity scoping, geolocation evidence packs, risk assessments with mitigations, and filed due diligence statements with supporting records. The team defends its files against the scrutiny enforcement will apply. They return with supply chains they can document, not just describe.
Beyond the basics, the program covers the amended obligations for downstream operators and traders, simplified due diligence for low-risk origins, record-keeping duties, and the penalty regime. Teams learn how enforcement checks scale with country risk and how to keep documentation inspection-ready.
The capstone lab brings it together: each team completes an end-to-end readiness exercise, producing a compliant due diligence file for a real-world commodity scenario.

Build EUDR Due Diligence Files With Traceable Supply-Chain Evidence
Edstellar develops EUDR practice through commodity scope, operator responsibilities, geolocation, risk assessment, and due diligence records. Teams inspect sample supplier and plot information before documenting mitigation decisions. The final case file is reviewed for traceability, evidence completeness, and justified risk conclusions rather than implying that training review establishes product legality or regulatory acceptance.
- Step 01
Consult
We explore sourcing and compliance responsibilities, identifying gaps in commodity scoping, operator roles, plot evidence, supplier-risk assessment, mitigation records, and due diligence statements.
- Step 02
Plan
We establish EUDR foundations before product and role classification, then geolocation validation, risk assessment, and mitigation, culminating in a complete due diligence file.
- Step 03
Align
We align supply-chain due diligence expertise with sourcing, legal, compliance, and audit teams, introducing EUDR concepts and adapting cases to relevant commodities and regions.
- Step 04
Customize
We tailor fictional supplier chains, plot coordinates, evidence gaps, and country-risk scenarios to representative products, preserving the connection between records and the goods under review.
- Step 05
Execute
Participants validate coordinates, score supplier cases, document mitigations, and draft statements, receiving feedback on traceability, evidence sufficiency, and the treatment of unresolved risk.
- Step 06
Evaluate
We assess the due diligence file for clear scope and roles, complete supporting records, defensible risk reasoning, and documented actions addressing gaps before any actual submission.
