Product guide

Wooden Barrel & EUDR

Wooden barrels are listed wood products, but the updated Annex I adds packaging-use and used-product exclusions.

Status

Conditional — product vs packaging use matters

Next step

Confirm exact material, product use and origin-country facts in the combined checker.

Examples

New empty barrels sold as products can be treated differently from barrels already being used only to contain and transport another marketed/exported product.

Reusable packaging rule

Clearly reusable packing can fall outside EUDR from the moment it is used exclusively to support, protect or carry another product and is presented with that product.
