en.Wedoany.com Reported - Peru's Ministry of Foreign Trade and Tourism and the Ministry of Agricultural Development and Irrigation are jointly advancing the implementation of the European Union Deforestation-Free Products Regulation (EUDR) in Peru, carrying out a series of actions to promote the requirements of this regulation.

As part of the joint efforts, the two ministries plan to promote the "Due Diligence Guidance Document for the Legality of Coffee and Cocoa under the EUDR Framework," jointly developed by the Ministry of Foreign Trade and Tourism (Mincetur), the Ministry of Agricultural Development and Irrigation (Midagri), and the private sector. To ensure dissemination effectiveness and international coverage, Mincetur will leverage the platform of Peru's Commercial Offices Abroad (OCEX) for promotion.

Within this framework, Vice Minister of Foreign Trade and Tourism César Llona Silva and Vice Minister of Agricultural Development and Policy Supervision Jorge Sáenz Rabanal, along with their technical teams, held a working meeting to discuss follow-up actions to ensure the regulation's implementation.

The two officials attended the "Progress Presentation on the EUDR National Strategy" forum, focusing on progress in terms of achievements, gaps, and next steps for 2026. Vice Minister Llona stated that the Ministry of Foreign Trade and Tourism will continue to work collaboratively and professionally with all relevant parties—the public sector, private sector, international cooperation agencies, academia, and producers—to promote an effective, inclusive, and sustainable implementation of the EUDR National Strategy.

The European Union Deforestation-Free Products Regulation was published on May 31, 2023, imposing requirements on the sale of products such as cocoa, coffee, and oil palm. Exporters must demonstrate that their products have legal origins, are sourced from areas free of deforestation, and comply with national regulations. The regulation also requires the implementation of due diligence mechanisms throughout the entire supply chain.
