英国政府就打击供应链非法毁林公开咨询，大豆、棕榈油、牛肉、可可等商品拟纳入尽职调查
英国政府2026年11月11日启动一项公开咨询，征求对一套新办法的意见：要求企业对与海外非法毁林有关的商品做尽职调查，把这类产品挡在英国供应链之外。主管的环境、食品与农村事务部列出的商品包括大豆、棕榈油、牛肉、可可、木材、咖啡和橡胶。
咨询中的办法还只是提案，不是已经生效的规则。企业将来可能要证明，自己经手的这些商品在原产国的生产没有违反当地法律、没有砍掉不该砍的森林，政府现在要听的是行业、进口商和公众对办法细节的意见。
英国的食品和日用品大量依赖进口原料，大豆饲料、棕榈油、可可和咖啡的产地不少在热带森林地区。供应链尽职调查一旦落地，进口商的采购和溯源成本会上升，货源结构也可能跟着调整。
咨询结束后，政府要根据收到的意见决定是否立法、何时实施。企业和行业协会的回应、以及办法与北爱尔兰适用的欧盟毁林规则如何衔接，是接下来要看的两个具体问题。

UK Government Consults on Keeping Illegal Deforestation Out of Supply Chains, Covering Soy, Palm Oil, Cattle and Cocoa
The UK government launched a public consultation on November 11, 2026 on proposals to require due diligence on commodities linked to illegal deforestation overseas, keeping such products out of supply chains in Great Britain. The Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs identifies the commodities as including soy, palm oil, cattle, cocoa, timber, coffee and rubber.
The measures are proposals under consultation, not rules already in force. Businesses may in future have to show that the commodities they handle were produced in compliance with the laws of the country of origin, without clearing forest that should not have been cleared. The government is now seeking views from industry, importers and the public on the details.
Much of Britain's food and consumer goods rely on imported ingredients, and soy feed, palm oil, cocoa and coffee often originate in tropical forest regions. If supply-chain due diligence becomes law, importers' sourcing and traceability costs will rise, and supply structures may shift with them.
After the consultation, the government will decide whether to legislate and on what timetable. The responses from business and industry groups, and how the Great Britain measures sit alongside the separate EU deforestation rules applying in Northern Ireland, are the two concrete questions to watch.
