Digital Product Passport for Batteries: What It Means for Your Products

The EU Battery Regulation introduces a Digital Product Passport for certain batteries, required from 18 February 2027. Learn what data is expected and how to manage it alongside your products.

A passport with detailed expectations

Battery passports cover composition, materials, weight, recycled content, and performance or durability information, carried on a GS1 Digital Link identifier and backed by supporting documents. The requirement applies from 18 February 2027.

Model batteries as components

In Utomo you can capture batteries as components with their own materials and attributes, and associate them with the products they power.

Keep the data verifiable

Attach compliance and environmental documents, capture recycled content and recyclability, and publish a QR-linked passport that stays in step with the product record.

A few things you might be wondering.

Which batteries need a passport?

EU battery rules target specific battery types and capacities. Confirm whether your batteries fall in scope and the applicable timing.

How does this relate to electronics?

Batteries inside electronics may carry their own requirements. Modeling them as associated components keeps both sets of data connected.

Does Utomo store the supporting documents?

Yes. You can attach compliance and environmental documents to the product and its components, and include them in the published passport.
