Understanding a Due Diligence Statement
Overview
This page explains what a Due Diligence Statement records and how to read its detail page. Open a statement from the list by selecting its reference number.
🟢 Why this matters. The statement is the evidence that a specific product, from a specific supplier, was assessed as compliant, and it is what downstream parties and authorities rely on. Understanding what it covers is essential to using it correctly. See the consolidated EUDR text.
Statement summary
The detail page opens with the core facts of the statement:
| Field | What it shows |
|---|---|
| Report ID | The statement's reference number. |
| Covered Article | The article the statement is for. |
| Countries of Production | Where the commodity was produced. |
| Creation Date | When the statement was created. |
| Volume Usage | Volume used against the maximum, with the remaining amount and percentage. |
| Pieces | The equivalent in pieces, where applicable. |
| Validity Period | The start and end dates and the days remaining. |
The linked risk assessment
Every statement is backed by the mandatory risk assessment for its supplier and covered-article pair, shown with its final risk level (for example, Negligible). This is what the statement certifies.
Related orders and imports
The statement lists the purchase orders that contribute to it and the imports that draw against its volume. A relationship map summarises how many orders and imports are connected. One statement can cover several of each, up to its volume ceiling.
