DPP readiness checker.
Know where you stand.

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

DPPs become mandatory category by category: under the Ecodesign for Sustainable Products Regulation (ESPR) through product-specific delegated acts, and under sector laws that already set fixed dates — the EU Battery Regulation, the Detergents Regulation, and the Toy Safety Regulation.

Batteries are first: from 18 February 2027, electric vehicle batteries, industrial batteries over 2 kWh, and light-means-of-transport (LMT) batteries require a full Battery Passport under the EU Battery Regulation (EU) 2023/1542. That date is confirmed law. From the same date, every battery placed on the EU market must carry a QR code — including portable and SLI batteries, which do not need a full passport.

After batteries, the confirmed dates are detergents and surfactants (DPP from 23 September 2029 under Regulation (EU) 2026/405) and toys (1 August 2030 under Regulation (EU) 2025/2509). ESPR categories follow through delegated acts: iron & steel (act expected 2026), textiles/apparel, tyres and aluminium (2027), furniture (2028), mattresses (2029) — with requirements applying at least 18 months after each act enters into force.

Some are, some aren’t. Dates written into adopted law are fixed: the Battery Passport (18 February 2027), the detergents DPP (23 September 2029), and the toys DPP (1 August 2030).

For ESPR categories like textiles, furniture, and electronics, the Commission sets the real dates in product-specific delegated acts. The ESPR Working Plan 2025–2030 gives indicative adoption years, and application dates are set in the applicable acts. The framework generally provides a transition period, subject to exceptions. We show those as “Expected” and update them as acts are adopted. Preparation guidance is the same either way: start 12–18 months before your category’s date.

Yes. Your readiness score and deadline show instantly. Enter a work email only to unlock the detailed data-field checklist and priority action items. 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%). Scored answers receive 0–25 points; category-specific answers are averaged. Each area is normalized against 25, multiplied by its weight, and added to a rounded score out of 100. Product catalog size is excluded. This measures self-reported preparation, not verified compliance.

No. This is a self-assessment of your product-data preparation, not a legal opinion, certification, or audit. Scores and checklist statuses are based on your answers; the checker does not verify documents or supplier evidence. Confirm the rules that apply to your products and validate the required evidence separately.

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.

Data to prepare may include: unique product identifier, manufacturer identity, material composition, carbon footprint, recycled content, substances of concern, compliance documentation, and end-of-life instructions.

Beyond these, each product category adds specific fields. Batteries require chemistry composition and state-of-health data; textiles are expected to require fiber composition and manufacturing details; detergents need full ingredient disclosure. The checklist suggests preparation areas for your category. Exact mandatory fields depend on the applicable legislation and product-specific rules; the checklist is not a definitive legal specification.

Veribl’s platform helps you create Digital Product Passports 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 — you can manage customer experiences and passport data in one platform. Your business remains responsible for confirming applicable requirements and the accuracy of its data. Veribl supports structured data fields, machine-readable formats, and automatic template updates as regulations evolve.
