Does chocolate fall under EUDR?

CN 1806 is listed in Annex I. The relevant compliance work focuses on the cocoa input and its production origin, not simply the final chocolate factory.

Manufacturer challenge

Manufacturers should preserve the link from finished products back through cocoa ingredients to the underlying production evidence.

Important: This is a screening page, not a customs-classification ruling. Confirm the exact current Annex I wording and your product classification before relying on the result.

What to do next

  1. Confirm the exact CN / HS classification.
  2. Check whether the current Annex I entry is direct or marked “ex”.
  3. Identify the relevant commodity and production origin.
  4. Collect geolocation and supplier evidence.
  5. Apply the applicable due-diligence workflow.
