7 IMPORT OF HARVESTED TIMBER
EU FLEGT [Forest Law Enforcement, Governance and Trade] licensing scheme - voluntary scheme to ensure that only legally harvested timber is imported into the EU from countries with which the EU concludes bilateral FLEGT Voluntary Partnership Agreements. Under the scheme a partner country issues FLEGT licences for every shipment of timber products covered by the agreement exported to the EU. The release for free circulation in the EU of such shipments is conditional on the acceptance by EU competent authorities of the FLEGT licence. EU competent authorities may verify the authenticity of the FLEGT licence and its conformity with the shipment that it covers
Environment related objective
To ensure that only legally harvested timber is imported into the EU.
An alternative approach could have been to rely on voluntary certification schemes, however this would not provide the economies of scale or impact of a national approach and may not have adequately taken into account the role of government in verifying and ensuring compliance with relevant legislation. The EU also adopted a horizontal approach to the issue of illegal logging through adoption of Regulation 995/2010 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 20 October 2010 laying down the obligations of operators who place timber and timber products on the market (OJ L 295, 12.11.2010). This Regulation is consistent with the FLEGT Voluntary Partnership Agreements in that it recognises FLEGT licences (and CITES permits) as a means to demonstrate compliance with the Regulation.
