What is the EUDR issue for CN 4001?
Natural rubber is a core EUDR commodity. Manufacturers and importers need to trace the relevant rubber back to production and preserve the link through processors and suppliers.
Common evidence gaps
- Factory location used instead of rubber-production origin.
- Missing plot geolocation.
- Mixed rubber batches without complete origin linkage.
- Supplier declarations unsupported by underlying producer data.
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
- Confirm the exact CN / HS code used for your product.
- Check whether the Annex I entry is direct or marked “ex”.
- Identify country of production of the relevant commodity.
- Collect required geolocation and supplier evidence.
- Apply the applicable due-diligence workflow before the relevant market activity.
