What this checks

Owner, product identification, evidence location, records, traceability, the response process, contacts, and withdrawal.

Who should use it

Teams that may need to answer a competent authority or customs.

How results work

Missing material is an evidence gap. An unclear response process is specialist review.

Application date

From 2027-12-14 a product made with forced labour may not be placed on the EU market, made available there, or exported from the EU. Origin and product category do not remove that prohibition. This regulation does not create a generic audit duty or a recurring report.

Official sources

Authority and customs guidance is named beside the official text.

Limitations

No allegation text is saved and no investigation outcome is promised.

How to use this screen

Choose categories

Do not type a name, a worker, or an allegation.

Read the label

Unknown stays in review and is not an exemption.

Older screens stay

The existing prohibition, EUDR, and battery screens stay linked.

Questions

Does origin remove the prohibition?

No. Origin does not exclude a market action.

Is a generic audit required?

No. The regulation does not create a generic audit duty or a recurring report.

Can this say a product is clear?

No. A free-labour claim is not an output.

Are extra dates created?

No. The only statutory date is 2027-12-14.
