The EU Battery Passport
Under the EU Battery Regulation, electric vehicle batteries, light means of transport batteries such as e-bikes and scooters, and larger industrial batteries will need their own battery passport from February 2027. Each individual battery carries a unique identifier and a digital record.
Our builder has every field that record needs. Choose the battery category and the form gives you exactly what the regulation asks for.
What a battery passport records
The platform captures the full data set in one place:
- Identity and chemistry: a unique identifier, cell chemistry, capacity, voltage, and rated cycle life.
- Carbon and materials: carbon footprint class and the share of recycled cobalt, lithium, nickel, and lead.
- Responsible sourcing: a link to your supply-chain due-diligence report.
- Safety and end of life: state of health, substances of concern, and recycling and disassembly guidance.
A unique passport for every battery
Battery passports are required at the level of the individual battery, not just the model. Item-level tracking gives each unit its own QR code and its own history, so a battery can carry its record through use, servicing, second life, and recycling.
One of the first hard deadlines
The battery passport is one of the earliest dates on the calendar, which makes it a good place to get ahead. You can build a battery passport today and have it ready well before February 2027.
Frequently asked questions
When is the EU battery passport mandatory?
From 18 February 2027 for electric vehicle batteries, light means of transport batteries, and industrial batteries over 2 kWh.
Does every battery need its own passport?
Yes. The regulation requires a passport for each individual battery, with a unique identifier, which is why item-level tracking matters.
What data does a battery passport need?
Identity and chemistry, capacity and performance, carbon footprint and recycled content, supply-chain due diligence, state of health, and end-of-life and recycling information.
Are small portable batteries included?
The 2027 requirement targets EV, light transport, and larger industrial batteries. Smaller portable cells are generally outside this first wave.
