Forest law enforcement, governance and trade in timber products to the European Union

This procedure concerns the conclusion of a Voluntary Partnership Agreement between the EU and Guyana. The agreement aims to promote legal timber trade and improve forest governance and law enforcement, contributing to sustainable forest management and combating illegal logging.

This agreement will affect timber exporters in Guyana and importers in the EU. It seeks to ensure that all timber products imported into the EU from Guyana are legal, thereby supporting environmental protection and fair trade practices.
