Works with your own EUDR Information System account. Fous is an independent product.

## What you can build on the Information System

### Get due diligence statements

Reads the due diligence statements in your dashboard, with each statement's status, reference number and verification number.

- Takes: Status (optional), submitted since (optional)
- Returns: Internal reference number, activity type, status, reference number, verification number, date

### Read a due diligence statement in full

Opens one statement from the dashboard and reads its commodities, HS codes, descriptions, quantities, countries of production and any message from the authority.

- Takes: Internal reference number or reference number
- Returns: Status, activity type, HS code, description of goods, net mass, country of production, rejection reason, communication from the authority

### Check a supplier's statement by its numbers

Looks up a statement from further up your supply chain by its reference number and verification number, as a downstream operator or trader.

- Takes: Reference number, verification number
- Returns: Status, activity type, HS code, description of goods, net mass, country of production

### Withdraw a due diligence statement

Opens a statement you submitted and withdraws it, which the Information System allows within 72 hours of the statement becoming available.

- Takes: Reference number
- Returns: Reference number, status

## Automate the Information System with a workflow

A [workflow](/product/workflows) runs your methods as one process, with nobody at the screen. A schedule or a call from your own system starts it, the steps run in order, and the result arrives in your inbox or in the systems you already use.

### New reference numbers, handed to your ERP

Starts: Every hour

1. Get the due diligence statements in Available status submitted in the last 3 days.
2. Keep the statements that were not Available on the last run.
3. Post internal reference number, reference number and verification number to your ERP webhook.

### Rejected statements and messages from the authority

Starts: Every weekday at 8:00

1. Get the due diligence statements submitted in the last 14 days.
2. Read each one in full for its status, rejection reason and any communication from the authority.
3. Keep those that turned Rejected or got a new communication since the last run, and email you them.

### Supplier statement check for incoming deliveries

Starts: When your system calls the workflow's webhook with reference and verification numbers

1. For each pair of numbers, check the supplier's statement in the Information System.
2. Keep the statements whose status is not Available.
3. Post those, with their status, to your purchasing system's webhook.

You can run a workflow by hand on every plan, Free included. Schedules and webhook triggers come with the paid plans, from $29 a month.

## Once built, one call from your code

Once you have built a [method](/product/methods), it is one POST to /v1/runs from your backend, or a tool an AI agent calls over MCP. This is what “Get due diligence statements” would look like.

Example request:

```
curl https://api.fous.com/v1/runs \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $FOUS_API_KEY" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{
    "method": "eudr.webcloud.ec.europa.eu/get_due_diligence_statements",
    "input": {
      "status": "Available",
      "submitted_since": "2026-11-09"
    }
  }'
```

Example response:

```
{
  "status": "completed",
  "data": {
    "statements": [
      {
        "internal_reference_number": "ACME-COF-2026-0418",
        "activity_type": "IMPORT",
        "status": "Available",
        "reference_number": "26NLX4K7Q2M9TB",
        "verification_number": "QW7RT2PK",
        "date": "2026-11-10T09:42:00Z"
      }
    ],
    "count": 1
  }
}
```

An example with invented data, not a ready-made endpoint. The method exists in your organization once you build it, and its name, inputs and fields follow your request.

## The Information System’s own options

The Commission offers a SOAP web service for operators and authorised representatives: it submits, amends and withdraws due diligence statements and returns each one's status, reference number and verification number. It does not return a statement's full content, which is shown only in the web application. Access comes from your own Information System profile.

| Option | What it covers | What it takes |
| --- | --- | --- |
| Due Diligence Statement service (V4) | Submit, amend and withdraw statements, and get status, reference and verification numbers by UUID or internal reference number. | An operator and EU Login user, Web Services Access activated in your profile for an Authentication Key, WS-Security over HTTPS. |
| Simplified Declaration service (V4) | The same submission and retrieval for simplified declarations. | For micro or small primary operators established in a low-risk country, producing and placing their own products. |
| GeoJSON upload | Plot coordinates for a statement provided in bulk in one GeoJSON file. | A GeoJSON file with the coordinates of the plots of land. |
| The Information System by hand | The dashboard of statements, the full content of each one, and the lookup of other operators' statements by reference and verification number. | An EU Login account with a second factor, linked to your operator. |

## Signing in to the Information System

The Information System signs people in through EU Login: a password, then a second factor such as the EU Login Mobile App, a security key or passkey, or an eID. SMS is not accepted. With Fous you sign in through EU Login yourself, with your own account, and the login is sealed with AES-256, never returned by the API or written to logs.

## Worth knowing

- **Reference numbers take time**: A statement shows Under system analysis until risk analysis ends, and high-risk ones go to Competent Authority review. The Commission asks you to wait at least one hour after submitting before checking.
- **72 hours to amend or withdraw**: Amending or withdrawing is allowed for 72 hours after a statement becomes Available. After that, amending needs an extension from your competent authority, and a grouped statement cannot be withdrawn.
- **Full content is in the web application only**: The API returns a statement's status and numbers, not its content. Looking up another operator's statement by reference and verification number is also in the web application only, for non-SME downstream operators and traders.
- **Acceptance and production are separate**: The acceptance server is a replica for training and testing, and its submissions have no legal value. An account in one environment does not give access to the other: you register in each.

## Frequently asked questions

### Does the EUDR Information System have an API?

Yes. A SOAP web service submits, amends and withdraws due diligence statements and simplified declarations, and returns their status, reference number and verification number. You activate Web Services Access in your own profile to get an Authentication Key. It does not return a statement's full content.

### When does a due diligence statement get its reference number?

Once the system's risk analysis has finished and the statement becomes Available. Until then it shows Under system analysis, or Under Competent Authority review when it was profiled as high risk. The Commission asks you to wait at least one hour after submitting before checking.

### Can I check a supplier's due diligence statement through the API?

No. Looking up a statement by its reference number and verification number was discontinued as an API operation and is now in the web application only, for non-SME downstream operators and traders. A method you build in Fous can do that lookup when your own account has that role.

### Can I change a due diligence statement after submitting it?

Yes, within 72 hours of it becoming Available: you can amend it or withdraw it. After that, amending needs an extension granted by your competent authority, and a statement under active checks or in Grouped status cannot be withdrawn.

### Is Fous affiliated with the European Commission?

No. Fous is an independent product. You use it with your own EU Login account and operator in the EUDR Information System, and a method reads and does only what that account can.

Fous is an independent product: it is not affiliated with, endorsed by or sponsored by the operator of EUDR Information System (European Commission (DG Environment)). The name is used only to say which system this page is about. Something here wrong or out of date? Write to legal@fous.com.
