Question 1

Why use this map instead of a government database?

Accepted Answer

Government databases typically show only mandatory regulatory requirements from official bodies. This map layers business frameworks, voluntary sustainability standards, industry-specific certifications, and ESG reporting frameworks alongside government regulations — giving you a complete compliance picture. As regulations transition from paper-based to digital enforcement, the overlap between mandatory and voluntary frameworks is growing, and missing a voluntary framework could mean losing a buyer contract even if you meet all government requirements.

Question 2

What types of compliance are covered?

Accepted Answer

The map covers regulatory requirements (CE Mark, REACH, GDPR, UFLPA), voluntary standards (ISO 26000, Circularity Declaration), industry-specific frameworks (Fashion Act, Battery Regulation), ESG reporting standards (CSRD, TNFD, SASB/IFRS), and sustainability certifications (Carbon Footprint, Deforestation-Free, Biodiversity Impact). In total, over 110 frameworks across 13 categories.

Question 3

How do I know which frameworks apply to my business?

Accepted Answer

Start by selecting the countries where you sell or manufacture on the interactive map, then narrow by your industry. The map filters to show only the frameworks applicable to your selection, sorted by specificity — country-level requirements first, then regional, then global. You can further filter by depth (country, regional, global) and see risk levels, compliance deadlines, and automation impact for each framework.

Question 4

Is this map updated when regulations change?

Accepted Answer

Yes. The compliance registry is reviewed and updated continuously as regulations evolve. Major regulatory changes — new EU delegated acts, updated ISO standards, new US federal rules — are typically reflected within days of official publication. Each framework page shows its current status (Active, Transition, or Upcoming) with effective dates.
