Simplified Declaration service: New EUDRSimplifiedDeclarationServiceV3 with 6 operations (submitSd, updateSd, withdrawSd, getSd, getSdByInternalReference, getSdByIdentifiers) for MSPOs, authorised representatives, and Member States (Art 4a(4)).
Declaration versioning: getSd and getDds accept an optional version parameter to retrieve a specific version. Responses include a version field.
New status values: EudrStatusType now includes SUSPENDED, UPDATED, GROUPED, and OBSOLETE alongside existing values. SUSPENDED and UPDATED are not active in the current release.
New event types: EudrEventType includes GROUPED, SUSPENDED, UPDATED, ACCEPTED in addition to existing event types.
SD reference number format: 14 characters starting with S (e.g., S26FRNMNBSA96Q), same length as DDS but with the S prefix distinguishing the type.
Postal address for SD: Simplified declarations may use postal address instead of GeoJSON geolocation for plots of land.
V2 clients must update their WSDL/XSD bindings to the V3 namespace and endpoint.
New enum values in EudrStatusType and EudrEventType may require client-side updates to avoid unmarshalling errors.
DDS amend/withdraw responses now return uuid and status (lifecycle status such as AVAILABLE or WITHDRAWN). Previously returned only a status string (SC_200_OK). Response parsing must be updated.
Response structure changes in operator and commodity type definitions.
Current: WS-Security (UsernameToken with PasswordDigest over HTTPS), unchanged from V2.
Future: mTLS-based authentication is planned for a subsequent release. The current UsernameToken mechanism will be maintained during a transition period.
