2025年5月，欧盟将泰国列为森林砍伐“低风险”国家，有利于其欧盟市场出口。
English Version
On May 22, 2025, the European Union classified Thailand as a "low-risk" country under its EU Deforestation Regulation (EUDR). This regulation, effective later this year for medium to large EU companies, aims to ensure that specific imported products, including soy, cocoa, palm oil, wood, coffee, and beef, are not linked to deforestation. Products must be legally produced and undergo a three-step due diligence process: information collection, risk assessment, and risk mitigation.
Thailand’s designation as low-risk is a significant advantage, especially in its challenging economic landscape. Thai exporters will enjoy exemptions from complex compliance costs, reducing the financial burden of entering the EU market. This classification fosters opportunities for Thailand, particularly in rubber and palm oil sectors, by attracting imports away from higher-risk countries.
中文简体版本
在2025年5月22日，欧盟将泰国归类为“低风险”国家，适用于欧盟森林砍伐法规（EUDR）。该法规将于今年晚些时候生效，旨在确保特定进口产品，如大豆、可可、棕榈油、木材、咖啡和牛肉，未与森林砍伐相关。产品必须合法生产，并经历三步尽职调查过程：信息收集、风险评估和风险缓解。
泰国被认定为低风险国家是一个重要优势，尤其是在当前经济挑战中。泰国出口商将在合规成本上享受豁免，从而减轻进入欧盟市场的经济负担。此分类为泰国带来了机遇，特别是在橡胶和棕榈油领域，吸引进口商从高风险国家转移采购。
