What this checks
Policy, supply-chain controls, risk identification, mitigation, third-party verification, audit documentation, and retention.
Who should use it
Teams preparing battery due diligence before verification.
How results work
A missing category is an evidence gap. Unclear notified-body verification is specialist review.
Application dates
From 2027-02-18 an LMT battery, an industrial battery above 2 kWh, and an EV battery need a battery passport when placed on the market or put into service. Battery due-diligence obligations run from 2027-08-18. A further category date stays pending until an implementing act sets it.
Official sources
Commission guidance and the existing amending act sit beside the regulation.
Limitations
No raw supply-chain file is stored and no legal certification is issued.
