The EU delays its anti-deforestation law to 2026 over technical and supply chain concerns.
The European Union plans to delay its anti-deforestation law by one year to late 2026 due to unresolved technical issues with its tracking system and concerns over supply chain disruptions.
The law, originally set for late 2024 and delayed to late 2025, bans imports of commodities like soy, palm oil, and cattle from deforested land after December 2020, requiring companies to use geolocation and satellite data for supply chain transparency.
The proposed delay, still awaiting approval by EU member states and the European Parliament, has drawn criticism from environmental groups who say it signals weak commitment and risks environmental harm.
The announcement coincides with the EU’s signing of a free-trade agreement with Indonesia, a major critic of the law, though officials stated the two events are unrelated.
