🌲 EUDR API Client
Enterprise-grade Node.js library for EU Deforestation Regulation (EUDR) compliance Complete integration with the EUDR TRACES system — V3 API: Due Diligence Statements (DDS), Simplified Declarations (SD), and Declaration Verification.
⚠️ V1 / V2 are discontinued — use V3
The EUDR Information System now only accepts V3 requests. As of this writing, the acceptance environment rejects V1/V2 requests with a SOAP fault: "This API version has been discontinued. Please use the V3 API endpoints." V1 and V2 client code is no longer functional against the live system.
This README documents the V3 API first, since it's the only version that actually works. The V1/V2 client classes (EudrSubmissionClient, EudrSubmissionClientV2, EudrRetrievalClient, EudrRetrievalClientV2) remain in the library and are still described in this document, but only in the Legacy: V1 / V2 API Reference section at the bottom — kept for historical reference and for anyone migrating an old integration, not for new development.
Start new integrations here:
EudrSubmissionClientV3/EudrRetrievalClientV3— Due Diligence Statement (DDS)EudrSimplifiedDeclarationClientV3— Simplified Declaration (SD), for micro/small primary operatorsEudrVerifyDeclarationClientV3— Declaration verification, for downstream operators and traders
EUDR Systems
The EUDR system operates on two environments:
🟢 Production (LIVE): https://eudr.webcloud.ec.europa.eu/tracesnt/
- Purpose: Real submissions with legal value
- Web Service Client ID:
eudr - Use: Only for products to be placed on the market or exported after entry into application
- Note: Submissions have legal value and can be subject to checks by Competent Authorities
🟡 Acceptance (Training): https://acceptance.eudr.webcloud.ec.europa.eu/tracesnt/
- Purpose: Training and familiarization platform
- Web Service Client ID:
eudr-test - Use: Testing and getting familiar with the system
- Note: Submissions have no legal value
Why EUDR API Client?
The EU Deforestation Regulation (EUDR) requires operators and traders to submit Due Diligence Statements (or, for eligible micro/small primary operators, Simplified Declarations) for commodities like wood, cocoa, coffee, and more. This library provides:
- ✅ Full V3 API Coverage - DDS submission/retrieval, Simplified Declaration, and Declaration Verification, all fully implemented
- ✅ Production-Ready - Tested against the real EUDR acceptance environment
- ✅ Well-Documented - Comprehensive documentation with real examples
- ✅ Enterprise Features - Robust error handling, logging, and comprehensive validation
- ✅ Easy Integration - Simple API with real-world examples
- ✅ Smart Endpoint Management - Automatic endpoint generation for standard environments
- ✅ Flexible Configuration - Manual endpoint override when needed
- ✅ Flexible Array Fields - Array properties accept both single objects and arrays for maximum flexibility
- ℹ️ V1/V2 retained for reference only - kept in the library and documented at the bottom of this README, but no longer functional against the live EUDR system

Quick Start
Installation
npm install eudr-api-clientBasic Setup
const { EudrSubmissionClientV3 } = require('eudr-api-client');
// Initialize the V3 client with automatic endpoint generation
const client = new EudrSubmissionClientV3({
username: 'your-username',
password: 'your-password',
// Use "eudr-test" for the EUDR Traces acceptance environment, "eudr-repository" for production
webServiceClientId: 'eudr-test', // See the Configuration section below for details
ssl: false // SSL configuration: true for secure (production), false for development
});Submit your first DDS:
const result = await client.submitDds({
operatorRole: 'OPERATOR', // 'OPERATOR' or 'REPRESENTATIVE_OPERATOR'
statement: {
internalReferenceNumber: 'REF-001', // optional in V3 - generated by the system if omitted
activityType: 'DOMESTIC', // 'DOMESTIC' | 'IMPORT' | 'EXPORT' (no 'TRADE' in V3)

console.log('✅ DDS Submitted. UUID:', result.uuid);Configuration
Environment Variables
The library reads only
EUDR_LOG_LEVELfrom the environment. Credentials are not picked up automatically — pass them to the client constructor yourself. The variable names below are a suggested convention, not something the package resolves on your behalf.
# Read by the library
EUDR_LOG_LEVEL=info # trace, debug, info, warn, error, fatal
# Your own convention - you wire these into the client config (see below)
EUDR_TRACES_USERNAME=your-username
EUDR_TRACES_PASSWORD=your-password
EUDR_WEB_SERVICE_CLIENT_ID=eudr-test
EUDR_SSL_ENABLED=false # true for production (secure), false for developmentrequire('dotenv').config();
const client = new EudrSubmissionClientV3({
username: process.env.EUDR_TRACES_USERNAME,
password: process.env.EUDR_TRACES_PASSWORD,
webServiceClientId: process.env.EUDR_WEB_SERVICE_CLIENT_ID,
ssl: process.env.EUDR_SSL_ENABLED === 'true'
});Configuration Options
Automatic Endpoint Generation (Recommended):
const config = {
// Required
username: 'your-username',
password: 'your-password',
webServiceClientId: 'eudr-test', // Automatically generates the acceptance endpoint
// Optional
ssl: false, // true for production (secure), false for development
timestampValidity: 60, // seconds
timeout: 10000, // milliseconds
bodyIdentity: 'OP12345678', // only for API users belonging to several operators - see Multi-Operator Authentication
};Manual Endpoint Override (Advanced):
const config = {
// Required
endpoint: 'https://custom-endpoint.com/ws/EUDRDueDiligenceStatementServiceV3',
username: 'your-username',
password: 'your-password',
webServiceClientId: 'custom-client', // Custom ID requires manual endpoint
// Optional
ssl: true, // true for production (secure), false for development
timestampValidity: 60,
timeout: 10000,
};Multi-Operator Authentication
Requires EUDR Information System release 8.2.1 or later.
An API user that belongs to more than one EUDR operator can declare which operator it acts as on
each call, using the optional BodyIdentity SOAP header. Before 8.2.1 a web service user could only
belong to a single operator, and calls from a multi-operator user were rejected with
EUDR_WEBSERVICE_USER_FROM_MANY_OPERATOR.
The value is the operator's Web Service Identifier, assigned by the Commission when the operator
requests API access (max 16 characters; 32 for otherBodyAccessIdentifier).
// Configure a default identity for every call from this client
const client = new EudrSubmissionClientV3({
username: 'your-username',
password: 'your-password',
webServiceClientId: 'eudr-test',
bodyIdentity: 'OP12345678' // shorthand for OperatorAccessIdentifier
});
// Or switch identity per call - the natural multi-operator pattern
await client.submitDds(request, { bodyIdentity: 'OP12345678' });
await client.submitDds(otherRequest, { bodyIdentity: 'OP87654321' });
// Pass null to suppress a configured identity for one call
await client.submitDds(request, { bodyIdentity: null });Bodies other than operators use the object form, which accepts exactly one identifier:
{ bodyIdentity: { authorityActivityAccessIdentifier: 'AA-000123' } }
{ bodyIdentity: { organicControlBodyAccessIdentifier: 'OCB-00042' } }
{ bodyIdentity: { otherBodyAccessIdentifier: 'CUSTOMS-01' } }| Aspect | Behaviour |
|--------|-----------|
| Supported clients | EudrSubmissionClientV3, EudrRetrievalClientV3, EudrSimplifiedDeclarationClientV3 (all 12 DDS + SD operations) |
| Not supported | EudrVerifyDeclarationClientV3 — the Verify Declaration WSDL does not declare the header |
| When omitted | No header is sent and the request is byte-identical to previous library versions — single-operator users need to change nothing |
| Validation | Exactly one identifier kind (EUDR_V3_BODY_IDENTITY_INVALID), at most 16 characters — 32 for otherBodyAccessIdentifier (EUDR_V3_BODY_IDENTITY_TOO_LONG) |
| Rejected identity | An identifier the account may not act as comes back as UnauthenticatedException — surfaced as error.httpStatus === 401 |
Configuration Priority
Priority Order for Endpoint Resolution:
- Manual
endpoint(if provided) → Uses specified endpoint - Standard
webServiceClientId→ Automatically generates endpoint - Custom
webServiceClientId→ Requires manualendpointconfiguration
What happens automatically:
webServiceClientId: 'eudr-repository'→ Uses production environmentwebServiceClientId: 'eudr-test'→ Uses acceptance environment- Custom
webServiceClientId→ Requires manualendpointconfiguration
Example Configuration Scenarios
const { EudrSubmissionClientV3 } = require('eudr-api-client');
// Scenario 1: Automatic endpoint generation (Recommended)
const autoClient = new EudrSubmissionClientV3({
username: 'user',
password: 'pass',
webServiceClientId: 'eudr-test', // Automatically generates acceptance endpoint
ssl: false // Development environment - allow self-signed certificates
});
// Scenario 2: Manual endpoint override
const manualClient = new EudrSubmissionClientV3({
endpoint: 'https://custom-server.com/ws/EUDRDueDiligenceStatementServiceV3',
username: 'user',
password: 'pass',
webServiceClientId: 'custom-id',
ssl: false // Custom development server
});
// Scenario 3: Production environment
const productionClient = new EudrSubmissionClientV3({
username: 'user',
password: 'pass',
webServiceClientId: 'eudr-repository', // Automatically generates production endpoint
ssl: true // Production environment - validate SSL certificates
});Accessing Configuration Information
You can access endpoint configuration information through the config export:
const { config } = require('eudr-api-client');
// Get supported client IDs
const supportedIds = config.getSupportedClientIds();
console.log('Supported IDs:', supportedIds); // ['eudr-repository', 'eudr-test']
// Get supported services
const supportedServices = config.getSupportedServices();
console.log('Supported Services:', supportedServices);
// Get supported versions for a service
const submissionVersions = config.getSupportedVersions('submission');
console.log('Submission Service Versions:', submissionVersions); // ['v1', 'v2', 'v3']
// Check if a client ID is standard
const isStandard = config.isStandardClientId('eudr-repository');
console.log('Is eudr-repository standard?', isStandard); // true
// Generate endpoint manually (if needed)
const endpoint = config.generateEndpoint('submission', 'v3', 'eudr-test');
console.log('Generated endpoint:', endpoint);Real-World Examples

console.log(`✅ Domestic DDS submitted. UUID: ${domesticResult.uuid}`);Grouped Declarations
Scenario: Submitting a new DDS that references previously submitted DDS or SD declarations for grouping. This is the V3 replacement for the old V1/V2 associatedStatements/TRADE pattern — see Data Types for the conceptual difference.
Terminology: what the TRACES NT web interface calls a Group Head is exactly this — a DDS or SD submitted with
groupedDeclarations. There is no separate group-head API operation or field; the grouping declaration gets its own reference number, and its members move toGROUPEDstatus. A DDS group head may group DDS and/or SD members; an SD group head may group SD members only. The schema allows up to 2000 references per submission (the library rejects more withEUDR_V3_GROUPED_DECLARATIONS_LIMIT), while the Commission's release notes quote a business limit of 1000 members per group.
const groupedResult = await client.submitDds({
operatorRole: 'OPERATOR',
statement: {

{ groupedDeclaration: '26FRYUI34JTQKB' },
{ groupedDeclaration: '26FRLSCV861ZVV' }
]
}
});
console.log(`✅ Grouped DDS submitted. UUID: ${groupedResult.uuid}`);Note: referenced declarations receive
GROUPEDstatus and can no longer be individually amended/withdrawn while the grouping declaration is active. Submission is blocked if any referenced statement is not inAVAILABLEstatus. This is not the same concept as V1/V2'sassociatedStatements— see V3 DDS Facade Clients.
Authorized Representatives
Scenario: Submitting on behalf of another operator (REPRESENTATIVE_OPERATOR role)
const representativeResult = await client.submitDds({
operatorRole: 'REPRESENTATIVE_OPERATOR',
statement: {
internalReferenceNumber: 'DLE20/360',
activityType: 'IMPORT',
representedOperator: {
// EconomicOperatorReferenceNumberType - structured identifier

}
});
console.log(`✅ Representative DDS submitted. UUID: ${representativeResult.uuid}`);Business Rules & Validation
Unlike the legacy V2 client (see Legacy FAQ), the V3 clients do not pre-validate units-of-measure business rules client-side. V3 leans on the server for this: submit the request, and if a rule is violated the server returns a BusinessRulesValidationException SOAP fault, which EudrErrorHandler surfaces as a structured error.
The V3 clients do validate, client-side and before any network call, the things that are structural/schema-level rather than business rules — for example:
try {
await client.submitDds({
operatorRole: 'OPERATOR',
statement: { activityType: 'TRADE' /* not supported in V3 */, /* ... */ }
});
} catch (error) {
console.error(error.eudrErrorCode); // 'EUDR_V3_ACTIVITY_TYPE_TRADE_NOT_SUPPORTED'
}Client-side validation error codes (V3)
All of these are thrown before any network call, carry error.eudrSpecific === true, and are the same in every V3 client unless the table says otherwise.
| Error code | When it's thrown |
|---|---|
| EUDR_V3_ACTIVITY_TYPE_TRADE_NOT_SUPPORTED | activityType: 'TRADE' — dropped in V3 (DDS) |
| EUDR_V3_ACTIVITY_TYPE_INVALID | activityType is not DOMESTIC/IMPORT/EXPORT (DDS) |
| EUDR_V3_OPERATOR_ROLE_INVALID | operatorRole is not OPERATOR/REPRESENTATIVE_OPERATOR (DDS) |
| EUDR_V3_LEGACY_OPERATOR_TYPE_FIELD | the V1/V2 operatorType field was passed |
| EUDR_V3_LEGACY_ASSOCIATED_STATEMENTS_FIELD | the V1/V2 associatedStatements field was passed |
| EUDR_V3_IDENTIFIER_TYPE_INVALID | operatorReferenceNumber.identifierType is outside the V3 enum |
| EUDR_V3_OPERATOR_REFERENCE_NUMBER_LIMIT | more than 12 operatorReferenceNumber entries |
| EUDR_V3_GROUPED_DECLARATIONS_LIMIT | more than 2000 groupedDeclarations references |
| EUDR_V3_COMMODITIES_LIMIT | more than 200 commodities (same cap in DDS and SD) |
| EUDR_V3_PRODUCERS_LIMIT | more than 1000 producers on one commodity (same cap in DDS and SD) |
| EUDR_V3_SPECIES_INFO_LIMIT | more than 500 speciesInfo entries on one commodity (DDS only — SD has no speciesInfo) |
| EUDR_V3_DESCRIPTION_OF_GOODS_REQUIRED | descriptors was provided without descriptionOfGoods — both children of CommercialDescriptionType are mandatory |
| EUDR_V3_GOODS_MEASURE_REQUIRED | descriptors was provided without goodsMeasure |
| EUDR_V3_GEOJSON_INVALID | geometryGeojson is neither a base64 string, a Buffer, nor a GeoJSON object |
| EUDR_V3_BODY_IDENTITY_INVALID | bodyIdentity has zero, several, or unknown identifier fields |
| EUDR_V3_BODY_IDENTITY_TOO_LONG | a bodyIdentity value longer than its schema limit (16 characters; 32 for otherBodyAccessIdentifier) |
| EUDR_V3_SD_* | SD-only rules — see the SD validation errors table |
How server faults are surfaced
EudrErrorHandler normalizes every SOAP fault into the same thrown Error. The raw fault always remains available on error.details.soapFault.
| Server fault | error.httpStatus | Also set |
|---|---|---|
| NotFoundException (V3 get* operations) | 404 | error.notFound === true, eudrErrorCode: 'EUDR_NOT_FOUND' |
| UnauthenticatedException | 401 | — (wrong credentials, or a bodyIdentity the account may not act as) |
| PermissionDeniedException / "not authorized" faults | 403 | — |
| BusinessRulesValidationException | 400 | error.eudrErrors[] with { code, message, field } — code is null when the server reports no error code (the { field, message } fault shape used by Verify Declaration) |
| XSD validation (SAXParseException / cvc-*) | 400 | eudrErrors[0].code === 'XML_VALIDATION_ERROR' |
NotFoundExceptionbecame an explicitly declared fault on the V3get*operations with EUDR release 8.2.1; before that it surfaced as a generic 500.The faultcode prefix varies across the V3 services (
S:,soapenv:,env:,SOAP-ENV:); the mapping above is prefix-agnostic.BusinessRulesValidationExceptionis mapped by name because the EUDR system reports it with aServerfaultcode.
See each V3 client's Error Handling subsection below for worked examples.
API Reference
Services Overview
🚀 All services support automatic endpoint generation!
⚠️ V1/V2 are discontinued on the live EUDR system. The acceptance environment rejects V1/V2 requests with a SOAP fault:
"This API version has been discontinued. Please use the V3 API endpoints."V1/V2 client code remains in this library for historical/migration reference, but it is not functional against the live system. All new integrations must use the V3 clients.

Echo Service
Test connectivity and authentication with the EUDR system.
const { EudrEchoClient } = require('eudr-api-client');
const echoClient = new EudrEchoClient(config);
// Test connection
const response = await echoClient.echo('Hello EUDR');
console.log('Echo response:', response.status);Methods

|--------|-------------|------------|---------|
| echo(params) | Test service connectivity | message (String) | Promise with echo response |
Example
const response = await echoClient.echo('Hello EUDR');
// Returns: { message: 'Hello EUDR' }V3 DDS Facade Clients
V3 is a new API contract, not a "V2.1." It is not backward compatible with V1/V2: field names, response shapes, operation names, and some business rules changed (see the breaking-changes table below). Treat migration to V3 like integrating a new API, not applying a patch.
V3 uses a single unified DDS backend service, but the library's public API is intentionally split into two facade clients for consistency with the existing pattern:
EudrSubmissionClientV3for write operations (submitDds,amendDds,withdrawDds)EudrRetrievalClientV3for retrieval operations (getDds,getDdsByInternalReference,getDdsByIdentifiers)
const { EudrSubmissionClientV3, EudrRetrievalClientV3 } = require('eudr-api-client');
const submissionV3 = new EudrSubmissionClientV3({
username: 'user',
password: 'pass',
webServiceClientId: 'eudr-test',
ssl: false
});
const retrievalV3 = new EudrRetrievalClientV3({
username: 'user',
password: 'pass',
webServiceClientId: 'eudr-repository',
ssl: true
});
// Write operations
await submissionV3.submitDds({ /* V3 payload */ });
await submissionV3.amendDds('uuid', { /* V3 statement */ });
await submissionV3.withdrawDds('uuid');
// Retrieval operations
await retrievalV3.getDds('uuid'); // also accepts an array of up to 100 uuids
await retrievalV3.getDdsByInternalReference('INT-REF-001');
await retrievalV3.getDdsByIdentifiers('REFERENCE-NUMBER', 'VERIFICATION-NUMBER');V3 retrieval response shapes:
getDds/getDdsByInternalReferencereturn{ httpStatus, status, ddsInfo: [...] }—ddsInfois always an array of DDS overview entries (uuid,internalReferenceNumber,referenceNumber,verificationNumber,status,date,updatedBy,version, ...).getDdsByIdentifiersreturns{ httpStatus, status, statement: {...} }— the full DDS statement (activityType,commodities,geoLocationConfidential, ...), not an overview list.
V1/V2 -> V3 breaking changes (no silent translation): V3 does not accept old V1/V2 field names — the library throws a clear, tagged error instead of guessing a mapping:
| Old (V1/V2) | New (V3) | If you still pass the old field |
|---|---|---|
| operatorType | operatorRole (OPERATOR | REPRESENTATIVE_OPERATOR) | throws EUDR_V3_LEGACY_OPERATOR_TYPE_FIELD |
| activityType: 'TRADE' | not supported in V3 (DOMESTIC | IMPORT | EXPORT only) | throws EUDR_V3_ACTIVITY_TYPE_TRADE_NOT_SUPPORTED |
| associatedStatements | groupedDeclarations: [{ groupedDeclaration: referenceNumber }] | throws EUDR_V3_LEGACY_ASSOCIATED_STATEMENTS_FIELD |
Note V3 grouping is not the same concept as V1/V2 referenced statements: a grouped declaration receives GROUPED status and can no longer be individually amended/withdrawn while the grouping declaration is active — that's why the library doesn't auto-translate associatedStatements.
try {
await submissionV3.submitDds({ operatorType: 'TRADER', statement: { /* ... */ } });
} catch (error) {
if (error.eudrErrorCode === 'EUDR_V3_LEGACY_OPERATOR_TYPE_FIELD') {
console.error('Use operatorRole instead of operatorType in V3:', error.message);
}

V3 Simplified Declaration Client
Simplified Declaration (SD) is a new V3-only concept with no V1/V2 equivalent — it does not replace DDS, it's an alternative track for a specific operator category:
- Use DDS (
EudrSubmissionClientV3/EudrRetrievalClientV3) for standard, per-shipment due diligence statements. - Use SD (
EudrSimplifiedDeclarationClientV3) if you are a micro or small primary operator (natural person or micro/small undertaking) established in a low-risk country, placing on the market or exporting products you produced yourself. SD is a one-time declaration covering all your relevant products, submitted once instead of per shipment.
Unlike DDS, SD is exposed as a single unified client (no submission/retrieval split) since there's no pre-existing V1/V2 pattern to stay consistent with.
const { EudrSimplifiedDeclarationClientV3 } = require('eudr-api-client');
const sdClient = new EudrSimplifiedDeclarationClientV3({

geometryGeojson— base64-encoded GeoJSON (same as DDS)postalAddress—{ producerStreet?, producerPostalCode, producerCity }(single object or array)cadastralIdentifier— a land-registry identifier string (single value or array)
SD response shapes:
submitSdreturns{ httpStatus, status, sdIdentifier }.updateSd/withdrawSdreturn{ httpStatus, status, uuid, version, status: lifecycleStatus }(sameEudrStatusTypelifecycle values as DDS:SUBMITTED,AVAILABLE,REJECTED,WITHDRAWN,ARCHIVED,SUSPENDED,UPDATED,GROUPED,OBSOLETE).getSd/getSdByInternalReferencereturn{ httpStatus, status, sdInfo: [...] }(array of SD overview entries, same shape family as DDSddsInfo).getSdByIdentifiersreturns{ httpStatus, status, statement: {...} }— the full SD statement. Note SD commodities have nospeciesInfofield (unlike DDS).
SD validation errors (client-side, thrown before any network call — same error.eudrErrorCode / error.eudrSpecific pattern as DDS):
| Error code | When it's thrown |
|---|---|
| EUDR_V3_SD_OPERATOR_ROLE_INVALID | operatorRole is not one of MICRO_OPERATOR, REPRESENTATIVE_MSPO, MEMBER_STATE |
| EUDR_V3_SD_INTERNAL_REFERENCE_REQUIRED | statement.internalReferenceNumber is missing (mandatory for SD) |
| EUDR_V3_SD_INTERNAL_REFERENCE_TOO_LONG | statement.internalReferenceNumber is longer than 14 characters — see the note below |
| EUDR_V3_SD_ACTIVITY_TYPE_INVALID | statement.activityType is not DOMESTIC, IMPORT, or EXPORT |
| EUDR_V3_SD_PRODUCER_COUNTRY_REQUIRED | a producer is missing producerCountry |
| EUDR_V3_SD_PRODUCER_LOCATION_INVALID | a producer's location has zero or more than one of geometryGeojson/postalAddress/cadastralIdentifier |
| EUDR_V3_SD_REPRESENTED_OPERATOR_REQUIRED | operatorRole is REPRESENTATIVE_MSPO but statement.representedOperator is missing (submitSd only — updateSd carries no role) |
| EUDR_V3_SD_POSTAL_ADDRESS_LIMIT | more than 100 postalAddress entries on one producer location |
| EUDR_V3_SD_CADASTRAL_IDENTIFIER_LIMIT | more than 100 cadastralIdentifier entries on one producer location |
The SD client also throws the shared V3 codes — EUDR_V3_IDENTIFIER_TYPE_INVALID, EUDR_V3_OPERATOR_REFERENCE_NUMBER_LIMIT, EUDR_V3_GROUPED_DECLARATIONS_LIMIT, EUDR_V3_COMMODITIES_LIMIT, EUDR_V3_PRODUCERS_LIMIT, EUDR_V3_DESCRIPTION_OF_GOODS_REQUIRED, EUDR_V3_GOODS_MEASURE_REQUIRED, EUDR_V3_GEOJSON_INVALID, EUDR_V3_BODY_IDENTITY_INVALID, EUDR_V3_BODY_IDENTITY_TOO_LONG — listed in Client-side validation error codes.
internalReferenceNumberis capped at 14 characters for SD, not 50. The schema types the SD field aseudrCommon:ReferenceNumberType(maxLength 14), while the DDS field and thegetSdByInternalReferencelookup both useInternalReferenceNumberType(maxLength 50) — and the EU's 1.5 reference doc separately claims 35. Three numbers for one field; the library follows the type that actually carries it, so keep SD internal references at 14 characters or fewer.
submitSdreturns a UUID, not theS…number.SubmitSdResponse/sdIdentifieris typedeudrCommon:UuidType, so it is a plain UUID and is what you pass toupdateSd/withdrawSd/getSd. The 14-character declaration reference (e.g.S26FRNMNBSA96Q) that accompanies goods through the supply chain isreferenceNumberin thegetSdoverview, so obtaining it takes a second call. The EU's own annotation blurs the two — build against the types.
geometryGeojsonaccepts more than a string. The schema type isxs:base64Binary, so the library base64-encodes aBufferor a plain GeoJSON object for you; a string is passed through untouched, on the assumption it is already base64. This applies to the DDS client too.

Retrieval facade over the unified DDS V3 service. Unlike V1/V2, retrieval and submission share the same backend service — this client exists purely to keep the library's familiar submission/retrieval split.
Methods
| Method | Description | Parameters | Returns |
|--------|-------------|------------|---------|
| getDds(uuids, options) | Retrieve DDS overview by UUID(s), renamed from getDdsInfo | uuids (String or Array, max 100), options (Object) | Promise with ddsInfo array |
| getDdsByInternalReference(internalReferenceNumber, options) | Retrieve DDS overview by internal reference, renamed from getDdsInfoByInternalReferenceNumber | internalReferenceNumber (String), options (Object) | Promise with ddsInfo array |
| getDdsByIdentifiers(referenceNumber, verificationNumber, options) | Retrieve full DDS content, renamed from getStatementByIdentifiers | referenceNumber (String), verificationNumber (String), options (Object) | Promise with full statement |
| ~~getReferencedDds()~~ | ❌ Not available in V3 — the spec removes this operation entirely, there is no replacement | N/A | N/A |
Options
| Option | Type | Default | Description |
|--------|------|---------|-------------|
| rawResponse | boolean | false | Whether to return the raw XML response instead of the parsed result |
| bodyIdentity | string|Object | - | Operator identity for this call (multi-operator authentication); overrides the configured value, null suppresses it |
⚠️
getDdsByIdentifiersis restricted by operator class. The V3 WSDL states the operation is available only to non-SME operators (standard operators and authorised representatives) — SME downstream operators have no access to it. A rejected call comes back as aNotFoundException(error.notFound === true, HTTP 404) with the message "You are not authorized to view this DDS.", deliberately indistinguishable from a genuinely missing record. UsegetDds/getDdsByInternalReferencefor your own declarations — those are owner-scoped and not subject to this restriction.
Note: unlike V1/V2,
decodeGeojsonauto-decoding is not yet implemented for V3 —geometryGeojsoningetDdsByIdentifiersresults comes back base64-encoded exactly as received from the server.
Key Features
- ✅ Unified backend: retrieval and submission are the same DDS V3 service under the hood
- ✅ Batch retrieval:
getDdsaccepts up to 100 UUIDs per call, same as V1/V2getDdsInfo - ✅ Full statement retrieval:
getDdsByIdentifiersreturns the complete DDS statement, not just an overview - ✅ Consistent array fields:
ddsInfois always an array (even for a single overview result);commodities/producers/speciesInfo/groupedDeclarationsinside a fullstatementare always arrays - ⚠️ No supply chain traversal: V2's
getReferencedDds()has no V3 equivalent — grouping (groupedDeclarations) is a different concept, not a drop-in replacement

- ✅ New V3-only concept: no V1/V2 precedent, no legacy field name compatibility concerns
- ✅ Single unified client: write and retrieval operations in one class (unlike the DDS submission/retrieval split)
- ✅ One-time declaration model:
submitSdis meant to be called once per operator, not per shipment - ✅ Flexible producer location:
geometryGeojson,postalAddress, orcadastralIdentifier(DDS requires GeoJSON only) - ⚠️ Asymmetric identifier field naming:
submitSdreturnssdIdentifier;updateSd/withdrawSdreturnuuidfor the same value — this mirrors the actual WSDL, not an inconsistency in this library

Client for the EUDRVerifyDeclarationServiceV3 service — lets any party in the supply chain (not just the
submitting operator) confirm that a DDS or SD declaration is authentic and in a usable status, given only its
reference number and verification number. Specified in "EUDR Downstream Operator and Trader API Reference
v1.0" §4.1 (not the main Operator API Reference, which only lists this service in its summary table).
Methods
| Method | Description | Parameters | Returns |
|--------|-------------|------------|---------|
| verifyDeclaration(referenceNumber, verificationNumber, options) | Verify a DDS or SD by reference + verification number | referenceNumber (String), verificationNumber (String), options (Object) | Promise with result, status, dateTime |
Options
| Option | Type | Default | Description |
|--------|------|---------|-------------|
| rawResponse | boolean | false | Whether to return the raw XML response instead of the parsed result |
Key Features
- ✅ Single-operation client: only
verifyDeclaration, no submission/retrieval split - ✅ Role-agnostic: usable by Operators, Authorised Representatives, and SME/Non-SME Downstream Operators or Traders alike — unlike DDS submission, which is operator-only
- ✅ Works for both DDS and SD: the same
referenceNumber/verificationNumberpair works regardless of which service originally issued the declaration - ⚠️ No
bodyIdentitysupport: the Verify Declaration WSDL does not declare theBodyIdentityheader, so multi-operator authentication does not apply to this client - ✅ Three-way result:
EXISTING_USABLE,EXISTING_NON_USABLE, orNON_EXISTENT—status(the underlyingEudrStatusType) is only present for the twoEXISTING_*outcomes
Wording: the TRACES NT web interface labels these three outcomes VALID, NOT VALID and NOT FOUND. The API values are unchanged:
EXISTING_USABLE→ VALID,EXISTING_NON_USABLE→ NOT VALID,NON_EXISTENT→ NOT FOUND.To read the full content of a declaration rather than just verify it, use
getDdsByIdentifiers/getSdByIdentifierswith the same reference + verification number pair. That operation is restricted to non-SME operators — SME downstream operators and traders can verify existence but cannot read content.

All V3 statement fields that the schema allows to repeat can be provided as either a single object or an array of objects — this library normalizes either input shape before building the SOAP request, and always normalizes them back to arrays in retrieval responses.
Supported Flexible Fields (V3)
| Field | Where | Description |
|-------|-------|-------------|
| commodities | DDS & SD statement | Commodity entries |
| producers | DDS & SD commodity | Producer entries |
| speciesInfo | DDS commodity only (not on SD) | Species entries |
| groupedDeclarations | DDS & SD statement | Referenced declarations for grouping |
| postalAddress | SD producer location | Alternative postal address(es) for a production location |

Schema change vs V1/V2:
representedOperator.operatorReferenceNumberis a structured{ identifierType, identifierValue }object in V3, where V1/V2 usedoperator.referenceNumber. It may repeat up to 12 times (pass an array); a single object is still accepted and is the common case.identifierTypeis validated against the V3 enum — the V1/V2 IMO-based values (ship_man_comp_imo,ship_reg_owner_imo) andremosno longer exist and are rejected withEUDR_V3_IDENTIFIER_TYPE_INVALID.
Examples
Single object (works the same as an array of one):
const request = {
operatorRole: 'OPERATOR',
statement: {
activityType: 'IMPORT',
commodities: { // single commodity object, not wrapped in []
descriptors: { descriptionOfGoods: 'Wood', goodsMeasure: { netWeight: 100 } },
hsHeading: '4401',
speciesInfo: { scientificName: 'Fagus sylvatica', commonName: 'European Beech' }, // single object
producers: { country: 'HR', name: 'Forest Company', geometryGeojson: 'BASE64_ENCODED_GEOJSON' } // single object
},
geoLocationConfidential: false
}
};Array format (multiple items):
const request = {
operatorRole: 'OPERATOR',
statement: {
activityType: 'IMPORT',
commodities: [{
descriptors: { descriptionOfGoods: 'Wood', goodsMeasure: { netWeight: 100 } },
hsHeading: '4401',
speciesInfo: [
{ scientificName: 'Fagus sylvatica', commonName: 'European Beech' },
{ scientificName: 'Quercus robur', commonName: 'English Oak' }
],
producers: [
{ country: 'HR', name: 'Croatian Forest Company', geometryGeojson: 'BASE64_ENCODED_GEOJSON' },
{ country: 'DE', name: 'German Wood Supplier', geometryGeojson: 'BASE64_ENCODED_GEOJSON' }
]
}],
geoLocationConfidential: false,
groupedDeclarations: [ // array of grouped declarations
{ groupedDeclaration: '25NLSN6LX69730' },
{ groupedDeclaration: '25NLWPAZWQ8865' }
]
}
};Mixed usage (maximum flexibility):
const request = {
operatorRole:
