18 Feb 2027 — Battery Passport mandatory

EU Battery Passport — full 2023/1542 compliance, start in minutes

The EU Battery Regulation (Regulation (EU) 2023/1542) makes a Digital Battery Passport mandatory for every LMT, industrial (>2 kWh) and EV battery placed on the EU market from 18 Feb 2027. Annex XIII specifies 100+ required data points — we collect chemistry, carbon, recycled content and supply-chain data on one platform, seal it on-chain, and publish it as a QR code.

Battery Passport = product-scoped obligation. LMT (e-bikes, scooters), SLI (starter), EV, industrial (>2 kWh) and stationary storage — all in scope. Whether you are the battery manufacturer, importer or pack assembler, every SKU must carry a Digital Battery Passport and a QR code from 18 Feb 2027 onwards.

Critical dates

What becomes mandatory, and when?

18 Aug 2024
Regulation applies
Carbon footprint, supply-chain due diligence, safety requirements now in force. Portable-battery removability mandatory.
18 Feb 2027
Battery Passport mandatory
No LMT, industrial (>2 kWh) or EV battery SKU may be placed on the EU market without a Digital Battery Passport + QR.
18 Aug 2028
Recycled-content declaration
Recycled-content share for cobalt, lithium, nickel and lead must be declared with an audit trail.
2031 - 2036
Recycled-content minima ratchet up
PCR thresholds tighten stepwise. The economic value of the data you collect now grows over time.

Who needs to comply?

Every manufacturer, importer or distributor placing batteries on the EU market. Sector-agnostic — if you ship batteries, a Battery Passport is required.

EV / e-mobility manufacturers (cars, buses, trucks)
E-bike, scooter, LEV manufacturers (LMT category)
Industrial battery manufacturers (>2 kWh — data centres, forklifts, telecom)
Stationary storage / BESS / home ESS makers
Importers and distributors placing batteries on the EU market
OEMs and battery module suppliers

What is inside our compliance package?

We build the six Annex XIII blocks end-to-end.

General info + technical parameters

Carbon footprint & performance class
kg COâ‚‚e per kWh lifecycle declaration, A-F performance class calculation. Methodology + verification.
Material composition
Hazardous-substance disclosure (CAS-indexed), active material ratios, electrolyte and separator specs, cobalt / lithium / nickel / lead content.
Recycled content + End-of-Life
PCR/PIR declarations, removability/replaceability score, EOL guidance URL, WEEE-equivalent recycling route.
Supply-chain due diligence
OECD Due Diligence Guidance alignment, conflict-zone minerals, cobalt/lithium flow tables, third-party audit URL.
Blockchain sealing + QR publish
Every revision SHA-256 anchored to EBSI/Base testnet. Automatic QR generation, multilingual consumer view, timestamped revision trail.
