TracePass founder-led EU DPP infrastructure
Bulgarian-registered SaaS for EU Digital Product Passport compliance. Single accountable owner, public timeline, verifiable registry entries.
TracePass LTD is a Bulgarian-registered company that builds Digital Product Passport (DPP) infrastructure for the EU Ecodesign for Sustainable Products Regulation (ESPR, Regulation (EU) 2024/1781) and the EU Battery Regulation (Regulation (EU) 2023/1542).
We are deliberately founder-led and lean. Every regulatory claim, schema decision, and roadmap item has one accountable owner — visible on every page through the reviewer byline. The legal entity, the managing director, the EU Participant Code, and the Bulgarian UIC are all independently verifiable in the registry links below.
Founder
Malin Ivanov is the founder and Managing Director of TracePass LTD. He signed the CIRPASS-2 Community of Practice Memorandum of Understanding as an individual expert, submitted with the TracePass CoP application (TracePass itself is a CIRPASS-2 Stakeholder Community subscriber), and is the named author / reviewer on every regulatory page of this site.
Background: a decade of B2B SaaS engineering across EU compliance, payments, and data infrastructure. TracePass was incorporated on 2026-04-27 to ship Digital Product Passport infrastructure for the first passport deadlines fixed in EU law (batteries from 18 February 2027 under the Battery Regulation; detergents from 23 September 2029; toys from 1 August 2030).

Ecosystem participation
We participate in EU Digital Product Passport ecosystem bodies as a contributing organisation, never as an endorser of third-party tools or brands. Current participation tier and signed agreements are listed at /trust under "Ecosystem participation" — that page is the single source of truth so the membership signal stays honest as tiers change. /trust.
