A Loyens & Loeff legal article explains that the EUDR entered into force on June 29, 2023 and imposes due diligence duties on operators and traders placing seven commodity groups on the EU market from December 30, 2024. The obligations are phased in according to the size of the operator.
Phased due diligence requirements on palm oil, soy and cattle-linked products raise compliance costs for exporters into the EU, a factor that can divert volumes and shape regional price spreads.
After 554 past neutral policy events, Soybeans moved a median +0.0% over 5 sessions (51% higher; middle half -1.4% to +1.6%), and +0.6% over 20.
After 513 past neutral policy events, Palm Oil moved a median 0.0% over 5 sessions (50% higher; middle half -1.6% to +1.4%), and -0.1% over 20.
