Answer up to five questions and see whether your batteries need a passport, and who has to provide it.
What IonPass does
From the spreadsheet you have today to a passport behind every battery.
Step 1 · Data
Enter your battery data once per model
Fill in the Annex XIII fields for each battery model and see which ones are required on day one. Every battery of that model inherits them.
Step 2 · Labels
Print a QR label for every battery
Import serial numbers from a spreadsheet and download print-ready QR labels, with one unique identifier per battery.
Step 3 · Passport
Publish a passport page per battery
Each QR code opens a public passport page, with restricted sections for parties with a legitimate interest and an export in the Battery Pass data model.
Try it with one of your batteries
Fill in one of your batteries, see its passport and scan it with your phone.

Does this apply to you?
Which batteries need a passport?
Batteries for light means of transport (e-bikes, e-scooters and similar), industrial batteries above 2 kWh and electric-vehicle batteries placed on the EU market from 18 February 2027. Each individual battery gets its own passport.
Who is responsible: the brand or the supplier?
The company that places the finished battery on the EU market. Often that is the brand, but it can be the pack assembler or the importer. Cell suppliers can provide data, but the responsibility stays with that company.
What has to be in it on day one?
General information about the model, such as manufacturer, chemistry, capacity, weight and hazardous substances, plus data per battery such as the serial number and, for batteries with a battery management system, the state of health. Carbon footprint and recycled content follow later, once their detailed EU rules apply.
Is this legal advice?
No. IonPass helps you prepare and keep your data in order. Check your obligations with your own adviser.
