Vietnam is the world's second largest coffee exporter after Brazil and the leading global supplier of Robusta. Around 1.3 million smallholder families grow coffee across the Central Highlands — Đắk Lắk, Gia Lai, Kon Tum, Đắk Nông and Lâm Đồng — producing nearly 30 million bags a year. The European Union is Vietnam's largest coffee market, absorbing around 38% of the country's green coffee exports. Italy and Germany are the anchor destinations for Vietnamese Robusta bound for espresso blends and industrial roasters. Vietnam is classified as standard risk under Implementing Regulation (EU) 2025/1093, which means the full Due Diligence Statement under Article 4 and Annex II is required. EUDRCheck generates the dossier in 15 minutes. €199 per lot.

Vietnam is the world's second largest coffee exporter after Brazil and the global leader in Robusta. Around 1.3 million smallholder families grow coffee across the Central Highlands — Đắk Lắk, Gia Lai, Kon Tum, Đắk Nông and Lâm Đồng. The Vietnam Coffee-Cocoa Association (VICOFA) coordinates export quality and standards.
The European Union is Vietnam's largest coffee market, absorbing around 38% of green coffee exports. Italy and Germany are the anchor destinations, with Vietnamese Robusta forming the base of most European espresso blends and instant coffee production.
Vietnam is classified as standard risk under Implementing Regulation (EU) 2025/1093. The simplified declaration regime does not apply. The full Due Diligence Statement under Article 4 and Annex II is required for all Vietnamese coffee exporters.
Under Article 4 and Annex II of Regulation (EU) 2023/1115, the specific data fields your European buyer needs from you are defined by law. Here is what the regulation requires for every shipment.
Your buyer expects all six elements inside one structured document submitted to TRACES NT. EUDRCheck generates it in 15 minutes.
Vietnamese coffee processors and exporters typically aggregate Robusta from hundreds or thousands of smallholders through collection stations. Under Article 2(28), geolocation must be at plot level with six decimal precision. Processor-level coordinates are rejected. EUDRCheck's GeoJSON validator catches this before submission.
Vietnam's Land Law 2013 governs land use rights certificates (sổ đỏ). Article 2(40) of the EUDR requires documentation of legal land use rights consistent with Vietnamese legislation. Smallholder plots without clear certificates are a common gap. EUDRCheck's legal checklist covers all eight dimensions of Article 3(b).
No certification replaces the risk assessment required by Article 10.2. EUDRCheck produces the full Article 10.2 analysis, incorporating certifications as supporting evidence where applicable.
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.

Collecting GPS coordinates from each smallholder coffee plot in the Central Highlands is a separate operational layer. VICOFA and MARD have supported mapping initiatives in Đắk Lắk and surrounding provinces. If your data is in a spreadsheet, EUDRCheck imports it directly. The built-in map tool captures coordinates at WGS-84 with 6 decimals, compliant with RFC 7946.
We do not sell field data collection services. We generate the dossier from the data you already have or from coordinates you capture in our built-in map tool.
Under Article 25 of Regulation (EU) 2023/1115, Member States set national penalty regimes but must meet minimum EU-wide standards. The following consequences apply to any operator or trader placing non-compliant products on the EU market — including importers buying from Vietnamese exporters.
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.
Under Article 25.5, the European Commission publishes name, date and summary of every final infringement decision. Reputational exposure is permanent and public.
