Earlier Report Observations

Production of non-coniferous roundwood in the Democratic Republic of the Congo rose steadily from 90.2 million m³ in 2018 to 95.7 million m³ in 2023, representing an average annual growth of about 1.2%. This expansion took place under a regulatory framework established by the 2002 Forest Code, which, despite enforcement gaps, provided a basis for forest management.

Key developments included the 2020 introduction of guides for legal timber exploitation, aligned with EU FLEGT requirements, which imposed traceability rules and helped formalize part of the supply chain. In 2022, the government prepared to launch the Integrated Public Procurement Management System (SIGMAP) to enhance transparency, while the Wood Promotion and Valorization Directorate (DPVB) actively worked to promote Congolese timber and sustainable practices.

Market growth persisted despite ongoing challenges such as political interference in permit allocation, illegal artisanal logging, and a 2023 government investigation into illicit concessions awarded to foreign companies. These regulatory and promotional efforts appear to have supported production volumes even as governance issues continued.
