Three most common mistakes

❌

Pattern 1 — Lusophone supplier handles compliance

Your supplier provides data; you file the DDS

Brazilian, Mozambican or Angolan exporters supply data. Portuguese importer files in TRACES NT.

❌

Pattern 2 — EU-internal sourcing ≠ importing

Buying from a German importer = downstream, not operator

Importing directly from Brazil = operator with full DDS responsibility.

❌

Pattern 3 — São Tomé cocoa: low volume = exempt

There is no volume exemption

Even a small São Tomé cocoa consignment requires a DDS.
