Your Palm Oil Is RSPO Segregated. Your European Customer Still Needs a Separate EUDR Due Diligence Statement Filed in TRACES NT — Here's Why.

RSPO certifies ~20% of global crude palm oil under its P&C. RSPO covers deforestation prevention, biodiversity, peatland, labour and traceability across four models (IP, Segregated, Mass Balance, Book & Claim). The EUDR recognises RSPO as a tool for risk assessment (Art. 10.2). The Netherlands NVWA recognises RSPO as a private control system. But recognition ≠ exemption from DDS. Critical differences: EUDR uses FAO forest definition (0.5 ha, 5m, 10% canopy) while RSPO uses HCS-HCV. RSPO's 2018 deforestation baseline differs from EUDR's 31 Dec 2020. EUDRCheck generates the dossier in 15 minutes. €199.

The numbers that matter

~20% of global crude palm oil is RSPO-certified. FAO vs HCS-HCV definitions create compliance gaps. RSPO's 2018 baseline differs from EUDR's 31 Dec 2020 cut-off.

What the EUDR requires beyond RSPO

Each step highlights RSPO gaps.

1
Commodity
HS 1511/1513/1517. Elaeis guineensis. Annex II point 2.
2
Country of production
With subnational subdivision. Annex II point 3.
3
Geolocation
Plantation-level GeoJSON. RSPO Prisma has data but not in RFC 7946 format for TRACES NT.
4
Supply chain
Full entity mapping. RSPO tracks within its system but not in Annex II.5 format.
5
Legal compliance
8 areas under Art. 2(40). RSPO covers some.
6
Risk assessment + TRACES NT
14 criteria. FAO forest definition. RSPO does NOT file in TRACES NT.

EUDRCheck incorporates RSPO data and produces the full DDS.

Three most common mistakes

Pattern 1 — RSPO certificate as DDS

Different document, different system

TRACES NT requires structured Annex II DDS, not RSPO certificate.

Pattern 2 — RSPO Mass Balance = full traceability

Mass Balance allows mixing — EUDR prohibits it

Only IP or Segregated provide physical traceability EUDR demands.

Pattern 3 — RSPO 2018 baseline ≠ EUDR 31 Dec 2020

Different cut-off dates create compliance gaps

Deforestation between 2018 and 2020 may be RSPO-compliant but EUDR non-compliant.

What you receive: an 8-document EUDR dossier

EUDRCheck does not generate a single PDF. It generates a complete dossier of eight structured documents, delivered as a ZIP file you download and keep. Every document cites the specific EUDR article it complies with.

1

Scope Dictum

Identifies your role (operator / trader / downstream), applicable regime, legal timeline. Article 2 + Article 8.

2

Pre-filled DDS

Signable PDF + TRACES NT-importable JSON. Every Annex II field completed with your data. Article 4 + Annex II.

3

Validated GeoJSON

File compliant with RFC 7946 + WGS-84. Points for plots under 4 ha, polygons for plots over 4 ha. Visual PDF included. Article 2(28) + Annex II.4.

4

Formal Risk Assessment

Systematic analysis of the 14 criteria of Article 10.2 (letters a to n). Formal conclusion on risk level. Article 10.

5

Risk Mitigation Plan

Mitigation measures adopted or recommended when risk is standard or high. Article 11.

6

Supply Chain Mapping

Upstream and downstream map with full traceability data. Annex II.5.

7

Country-of-production Legal Checklist

Eight dimensions of Article 2(40). Article 2(40) + 3(b).

8

Post-DDS Calendar + Compliance Reminders

ICS calendar file with annual review, 5-year retention requirement, 72-hour amend/withdraw window. Article 12 + Article 32.

RSPO certificate and EUDR DDS: two separate systems

● EUDR DDS (EUDRCHECK)

DDS filed in TRACES NT

RSPO data strengthens risk assessment. GeoJSON, 14 criteria, formal filing.

∅ RSPO CERTIFICATE

Sustainability P&C certification

Prisma provides traceability. Does not output GeoJSON RFC 7946 or file in TRACES NT.

Both valuable. Neither replaces the other.

Enforcement reality

Under Article 25.

🇪🇺
Fines — minimum 4% of EU annual turnover
≥ 4%

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.

🇪🇺
Confiscation of the commodity and its revenues
100%

Article 25.2(b) and (c) — the relevant product and the revenues from its transaction may be seized by national customs and competent authorities.

🇪🇺
Exclusion from EU public procurement
12 months max

Article 25.2(d) — temporary exclusion from tendering procedures, grants and concessions for a maximum of 12 months.

🇪🇺
Temporary market ban in serious or repeated cases
Indefinite

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.

Article 25.5.

What EUDRCheck guarantees and what it doesn't

EUDRCheck generates a document structured under Article 4 and Annex II of Regulation (EU) 2023/1115 (as amended by Regulation (EU) 2025/2650) based on the information you enter. The truthfulness, accuracy and completeness of that information is your responsibility as operator or supplier of the consignment.

We guarantee that the document structure follows Article 4 and Annex II of Regulation (EU) 2023/1115 and that the legal references cited are correct as of the latest verification date. We do not guarantee that a specific document will be accepted by a market surveillance authority in a specific case, nor by a commercial buyer in a procurement process.

EUDRCheck is not legal advice. For specific situations, consult a lawyer or specialised regulatory consultancy.

Frequently asked questions — RSPO and EUDR

RSPO IP/Segregated — still need DDS?
Yes. IP and Segregated provide traceability, but the DDS in TRACES NT is separate and mandatory.
FAO vs HCS-HCV forest definitions?
EUDR uses FAO (0.5 ha, 5m, 10% canopy). RSPO uses HCS-HCV. Compliance gaps possible.
NVWA recognises RSPO — doesn't that help?
NVWA recognition may reduce inspection frequency, not eliminate the DDS obligation.
RSPO Prisma platform?
Prisma provides traceability data. That data must still be structured into a DDS and filed in TRACES NT.
Privacy?
Browser-side.
Legal advice?
No.
