Timber Legality Assurance

Timber Legality Assurance is a system that verifies whether wood and forest products have been harvested and traded in compliance with national laws and regulations. It aims to prevent illegal logging, deforestation, and associated environmental and social issues. Certification schemes or audits are often used to confirm the product’s origin, ensuring it is legally sourced. This helps buyers, consumers, and governments ensure responsible forest management, promote sustainable practices, and reduce illegal activities in the timber supply chain.
