All the fields of the EU Battery Passport template,
mapped field-by-field.
Battery makers and importers must publish an Annex XIII digital passport for each battery placed on the market from 18 February 2027 under Regulation (EU) 2023/1542 — for EV batteries, LMT batteries, and industrial batteries above 2 kWh. This guide breaks all the fields across 7 sections, marking which the law currently requires and which await implementing acts.
What's inside
A 26-page, print-ready PDF generated from the live TracePass platform template. Every field references its regulation article + annex, plus a source-data note (datasheet, IEC test report, SVHC declaration, PEF study, supplier declaration).
Who needs to file a battery passport
Regulation (EU) 2023/1542 Art. 77(1) mandates a digital passport from 18 February 2027 for:
- EV batteries — every battery used to propel an electric vehicle (full or hybrid).
- Industrial batteries above 2 kWh — stationary storage, telecom, UPS, large mobile equipment.
- LMT batteries — e-bike, e-scooter, e-moped batteries above 25 V or 250 W.
- Portable batteries, SLI (starter) batteries and industrial batteries up to 2 kWh are NOT in scope of the passport (they carry other obligations such as labelling).
Why we wrote this
TracePass is an AI-powered platform that generates Digital Product Passports for EU manufacturers. We see, every week, the same field-by-field gap-analysis exercise repeated across teams. This guide is the cheat sheet — a single PDF you can hand to the team and start work from. Use it to plan, even if you never become a TracePass customer.
