EvidencePass

Regulation (EU) 2023/1542, Article 77

Can you prove every mandatory field of your battery passport?

From 18 February 2027, batteries without a registered passport cannot be placed on the EU market — and customs check this at the border. We do not publish passports. We show you which mandatory fields you can prove today, exactly where each one is written in your documents, and what to request from your suppliers.

The QR code is not the problem. The data behind it is.

Passport publishing is commoditised and starts at €29 a month. Nobody tells you where the values come from, or whether your paperwork survives scrutiny.

The data is scattered

Values sit in supplier datasheets, laboratory certificates, safety data sheets and declarations of conformity — often in German or Chinese, often scanned.

Importers are treated as manufacturers

If you import, you carry manufacturer obligations and must keep technical documentation for ten years. This is not a one-off task.

Most have not started

In an industry survey, 76% said they had yet to consider the changes. Only 7% had moved beyond that stage.

Two separate axes, not one checklist

Because “missing” and “missing, and overdue since 2024” are not the same news. Competitors sell you one list with one deadline.

Evidence axis
Proven
value found and verified, source confirmed
Weak
found, but failed a check — needs human review
Missing
no evidence at all
Rejected
source did not match on re-read
Deadline axis
Overdue
the obligation already applies — a retroactive gap

falls due with the passport deadline
Conditional
tied to a delegated act; no absolute date yet
Later
falls due after the passport deadline

Performance parameters and state-of-health data have applied since 18 August 2024. Recycled content is not due until 2028 — for light transport batteries, 2033. You should not be paying for that today.

We claim nothing we cannot point at

Every value carries a file, a page and a character offset. The engine re-reads the source file and confirms the characters match. A mismatch means rejection, whatever else the value looks like.

Nothing invented

Extraction is deterministic, not generative. When a measurement is not valid — a scanned document with no readable layer, for instance — we do not show a readiness percentage at all. Unknown is not the same as zero.

Scans are read multiple times

Each page is read by five independent passes across two different engines. A number counts as proven only when at least three reads from two engines agree.

Contradictions are reported

If rated capacity, voltage and energy do not reconcile, we say so. A self-contradicting document is valuable information, not a technical detail.

What we cover

Mandatory fields are derived from Annex XIII of Regulation (EU) 2023/1542 and its cross-references.

The field count is computed from the official text, not copied from vendors. Composite points are expanded into individually provable fields; the counting method is published.

What we do not sell: certificates of compliance. Software cannot legally certify that you comply — that rests with you as the economic operator and with the competent authorities. We prove where each data point comes from.
