What geolocation data is needed for cocoa from Liberia?

You need GPS coordinates (latitude/longitude) of the cocoa production site in Liberia. For plots over 4 hectares, polygon coordinates defining the plot boundaries are required. For smaller plots, a single point coordinate is acceptable. Coordinates must be accurate enough to verify the land was not deforested after December 2020.

How do I verify Liberia cocoa is deforestation-free?

You must obtain documentation from your supplier showing that the cocoa production land in Liberia was not converted from forest after 31 December 2020. This typically includes satellite imagery analysis, land use certificates, or certification scheme documentation. The exact evidence required may vary based on your risk assessment.

What HS codes apply to cocoa from Liberia?

Common HS codes for cocoa include: 1801, 1802, 1803, 1804, 1805, 1806. However, the specific code depends on the exact product form and processing state. You are responsible for determining the correct HS code for your products. EUDR Central provides lookup guidance but does not make classification decisions.
