The European Union published an updated list of designated competent authorities tasked with overseeing the adherence of operators and traders to the EU Deforestation Regulation (EUDR).
In Germany, the authority responsible is the Bundesanstalt für Landwirtschaft und Ernährung (BLE). Other countries, such as Austria and France, have opted for a collaborative approach, with multiple authorities sharing the responsibility.
The list provided below has been updated to include additional member states whose competent authorities were initially missing.
The most recent version of the list includes competent authorities of 24 of the 27 EU member states. Three competent authorities are still missing from the list - precisely from the countries Greece 🇬🇷, Poland 🇵🇱, and Malta 🇲🇹.
