Sourcing palm oil from Sumatra
Sumatra is a significant palm oil producing region within Indonesia. When sourcing from this region, EUDR requires specific geolocation data identifying the production plots.
Geolocation requirements
Your due diligence statement must include GPS coordinates for production land in Sumatra. For plots over 4 hectares, polygon coordinates defining the boundaries are required.
Regional considerations
- Verify supplier certifications specific to Sumatra
- Confirm production dates relative to the December 2020 cut-off
