EU DPP regulations, tracked article-by-article
How TracePass maps the EU regulations behind the Digital Product Passport — the Battery Regulation article-by-article, ESPR delegated acts per category, the boundary with CSRD reporting, and a changelog of how our schema responds to each change.
The Digital Product Passport isn't one regulation — it's a stack of them, each landing on a different timeline. These pages show exactly how TracePass reads each one and what it means for the data you'll need to publish.
We track the legal text article-by-article rather than summarising it, so you can trace any field in a passport back to the requirement that put it there.

RegulatoryDPP and CSRD — where the product passport ends and reporting begins
TracePass is the product-level DPP and evidence layer that feeds your CSRD/ESRS reporting — it does not produce the report. Here's where the two meet.
RegulatoryFrequently asked questions
- Is TracePass a legal or compliance advisory service?
- No. These pages explain how our passport schema maps to the regulations, not legal advice. TracePass is software that helps you build and publish a Digital Product Passport; the positioning is "AI suggests, human approves".
- Does TracePass do CSRD or ESRS reporting?
- No. CSRD/ESRS is a separate corporate-reporting regime. The DPP can feed data into it, but TracePass is not a CSRD reporting tool — the CSRD page explains where the product passport ends and reporting begins.
- How often is the regulatory tracking updated?
- Each page carries its own last-reviewed date, and the changelog records how the TracePass schema responded to each regulatory change as the EU's implementing and delegated acts are published.
