Malaysia’s ambassador to the EU said the country complies with the EU Deforestation Regulation and cited the mandatory Malaysian Sustainable Palm Oil certification scheme. He also said Malaysia and the EU have held five rounds of free-trade negotiations since talks resumed in 2025, with a possible agreement targeted for mid-2027, while EUDR and other issues remain sensitive.
Continued EU market access for Malaysian palm oil depends partly on meeting deforestation-traceability requirements, while a future trade agreement could alter market access and trade costs. No immediate change to palm oil supply or prices is reported.
After 67 past neutral trade events, Palm Oil moved a median +0.0% over 5 sessions (51% higher; middle half -1.1% to +1.3%), and +0.6% over 20.
