China is the world's largest exporter of rubber tyres, generating a net export surplus of $21.5 billion in 2024. Chinese passenger tyre imports accounted for 71.2% of all EU tyre imports in 2023, and volumes continue to rise. Under Regulation (EU) 2023/1115, any product containing natural rubber (HS 4011 for pneumatic tyres) that is placed on the EU market requires a Due Diligence Statement. Chinese tyre manufacturers that source natural rubber from Thailand, Indonesia, Vietnam, Ivory Coast or Malaysia must trace the rubber to the plot of origin — even though China itself is classified as low-risk. The country-of-production for EUDR purposes is where the natural rubber was grown, not where the tyre was manufactured. EUDRCheck generates the dossier in 15 minutes. €199 per lot.

The critical compliance point for Chinese tyre exporters is understanding that the EUDR traces commodities to the country of production — where the natural rubber tree was tapped and the latex harvested. China imports its natural rubber primarily from Thailand, Indonesia, Vietnam, Malaysia and Ivory Coast. The risk classification that applies to the DDS is that of the rubber-producing country, not China.
If the natural rubber originates from a standard-risk country (Indonesia, Vietnam, Ivory Coast), the full DDS is required. If from a low-risk country (Thailand), simplified paths may apply for certain upstream operators.
Under Article 4 and Annex II.
EUDRCheck generates the dossier in 15 minutes.
China's low-risk classification applies to commodities produced in China. Natural rubber is not commercially produced in China at significant scale. The DDS must trace to the country where the rubber was grown — typically standard-risk Indonesia or Vietnam, or low-risk Thailand.
Article 10.2 requires traceability to the plot of land where the commodity was produced. A purchase order from a Thai or Indonesian rubber trader does not satisfy Annex II.4.
EU anti-dumping duties on Chinese truck and bus tyres are a separate trade defence measure. Paying anti-dumping tariffs does not exempt from EUDR. They are parallel, independent requirements.

If your rubber suppliers already have plot-level GPS data (increasingly common from EUDR-ready Thai processors), EUDRCheck imports it directly.

Under Article 25.
Article 25.2(a) requires Member States to impose fines with a maximum of at least 4% of the operator's or trader's total annual EU-wide turnover in the financial year preceding the fine decision. The maximum may be raised to exceed the economic benefit gained.
Article 25.2(b) and (c) — the relevant product and the revenues from its transaction may be seized by national customs and competent authorities.
Article 25.2(d) — temporary exclusion from tendering procedures, grants and concessions for a maximum of 12 months.
Article 25.2(e) — prohibition on placing relevant products on the EU market until full compliance is demonstrated. Applies to the European buyer, who will pass the consequence upstream to the non-compliant supplier.
