Is your product ready for the EU Digital Product Passport?

A Digital Product Passport is a digital record that contains detailed information about a product’s composition, origin, environmental impact, repairability, and end-of-life handling. Under the EU’s Ecodesign for Sustainable Products Regulation (ESPR), DPPs will be mandatory for a growing number of product categories starting in 2027.

Each product will carry a data carrier (QR code, NFC tag, or RFID) that links to its DPP, making the information accessible to consumers, recyclers, regulators, and market surveillance authorities.

Batteries are first — EV and industrial batteries over 2kWh require a Battery Passport by 18 February 2027 under the EU Battery Regulation (EU) 2023/1542. Portable batteries follow in August 2028.

Textiles, footwear, and tyres are expected mid-2027 under the ESPR. Iron, steel, aluminium, detergents, and furniture follow in 2027–2028. Consumer electronics, mattresses, construction products, cosmetics, and toys are scheduled for 2028–2030.

The European Commission publishes product-specific delegated acts that set final enforcement dates.

Yes, completely free with no email required to see your results. You’ll get your readiness score, deadline countdown, required data fields checklist, and priority action items instantly. We believe every brand selling into the EU should have access to clear DPP compliance guidance.

Your score is a weighted average across five dimensions: Data Infrastructure (25%), Supply Chain Traceability (25%), Environmental Data (25%), Product Identification (10%), and Category-Specific Readiness (15%). Each question maps to one of these dimensions, and your answers are scored based on how close your current capabilities are to DPP requirements.

A low score means there are significant gaps between your current data capabilities and DPP requirements — but that’s exactly why this tool exists. Focus on the priority action items in your results, starting with the highest-impact areas.

Most companies start by centralizing product data into a PIM or DPP platform, then progressively add supply chain, environmental, and category-specific data. Veribl’s platform is designed to help you close these gaps systematically.

The deadlines shown are based on the EU Battery Regulation (EU) 2023/1542 and the ESPR (EU) 2024/1781 as published. However, the European Commission sets final enforcement dates through product-specific delegated acts, which may adjust timelines by 6–12 months.

We monitor regulatory developments and update this tool regularly. Industry experts recommend starting preparation 12–18 months before your category’s deadline regardless of potential adjustments.

All products under ESPR require a core set of fields: unique product identifier, manufacturer identity, material composition, carbon footprint, recycled content, substances of concern, compliance documentation, and end-of-life instructions.

Beyond these universal requirements, each product category has additional specific fields. For example, batteries require state-of-health data and chemistry composition, while textiles require fiber composition and water consumption data. The checklist in your results shows exactly which fields apply to your category.

Veribl’s platform generates compliant Digital Product Passports directly from your existing product data. The same QR codes that power customer-facing product experiences (digital manuals, AI support, warranty registration) also serve as your DPP data carriers.

This means you don’t need a separate compliance project — your customer experience and regulatory compliance are handled through one platform. Veribl supports structured data fields, machine-readable formats, and automatic template updates as regulations evolve.
