What this checks
It asks whether those three categories exist as plans. It never generates a registry identifier.
Who should use this screen
Teams assigning internal categories before an official identifier route exists.
Verified dates
Regulation (EU) 2024/1781 is the ESPR basis. The EU DPP Registry is operational from 2026-07-20 and stores identifiers and metadata only. Product data stays decentralised. Certain large batteries use 2027-02-18. Other product groups stay PENDING until a delegated act sets a date.
Official sources
Regulation (EU) 2024/1781, the battery passport date encoded from Regulation (EU) 2023/1542, and the Commission ESPR working plan. Unpublished delegated acts are not treated as final.
Limitations
This is an operational screen, not a registration and not legal advice. It does not store identifiers, files, supplier names, or product data.
