Digital Product Passport explained

The four questions every brand asks first

Digital Product Passport
  1. 01

    What is a Digital Product Passport?

    A Digital Product Passport (DPP) is a digital record of a product's identity, materials, origin, environmental impact, care, repair and recycling information. A data carrier on the product, usually a QR code, links to it. Under the EU's Ecodesign for Sustainable Products Regulation (ESPR), a DPP will become mandatory for regulated product groups sold in the European Union, starting with categories such as textiles, batteries, furniture and steel.

  2. 02

    Which products will need a DPP?

    The European Commission sets DPP requirements product group by product group, through delegated acts under ESPR. The first ESPR working plan (2025–2030) prioritises textiles and apparel, furniture, mattresses, tyres, steel and aluminium. Industrial and EV batteries need a battery passport under the separate EU Batteries Regulation. Any brand, importer or manufacturer placing these products on the EU market, wherever it is based, will be responsible for the passport.

  3. 03

    What data does a textile DPP hold?

    The final list is set in the textiles delegated act, but ESPR already names the building blocks: a unique product identifier, the manufacturer and facility, material composition, substances of concern, recycled content, durability and repairability information, care instructions, end-of-life guidance and compliance documents. Our live passport already covers all of these, plus the supply chain journey and certifications such as FSC and GOTS.

  4. 04

    When does the EU requirement apply?

    ESPR has been in force since 18 July 2024, and the Commission's central DPP registry is due from July 2026. The textiles delegated act is expected around 2027, and product rules normally apply about 18 months after adoption, so EU textile passports are likely to be required from around 2028. Brands that start now have time to collect supplier data properly. Brands that wait will be chasing it under deadline.

Case study · Orientique, Australia

What a complete Digital Product Passport looks like

Most "passports" on the market are a single page of compliance data. The one we built for Orientique, an Australian fashion brand with decades of design history and production in India, has ten linked sections. One passport per garment style, reached from one QR code.

EU rules say, and when they land
The European Commission Digital Product Passport

What the EU rules say, and when they land

The Digital Product Passport is created by the Ecodesign for Sustainable Products Regulation (ESPR), Regulation (EU) 2024/1781. ESPR is a framework. It does not set every rule at once. Instead, the European Commission adopts a delegated act for each product group, setting which information the passport must contain and the date it applies.

Three principles run through every DPP requirement:

  • Unique identifiers for the product, the economic operator and the manufacturing facility.
  • Open, interoperable standards, so any authority, recycler or customer can read the passport without proprietary software.
  • Differentiated access consumers see one view, trade partners and authorities see more.

Dates reflect the published ESPR text and the Commission's 2025-2030 working plan. Indicative dates may change as delegated acts are adopted. Last reviewed: October 2026.

Jul 2024 Done

ESPR enters into force

Regulation (EU) 2024/1781 sets the legal basis for Digital Product Passports across most physical products.

Apr 2025 Done

First ESPR working plan adopted

Priorities for 2025–2030: textiles and apparel, furniture, mattresses, tyres, steel and aluminium, plus horizontal rules on repairability and recycled content.

Jul 2026 Now

EU DPP registry and destruction ban

The Commission’s central registry of passport identifiers is due. Large companies may no longer destroy unsold apparel and footwear.

Feb 2027 Next

Battery passport applies

Under the EU Batteries Regulation, EV, light-means-of-transport and industrial batteries above 2 kWh need a digital battery passport.

~2027 Next

Textiles delegated act expected

Sets the exact data a textile and apparel passport must hold.

~2028 Prepare

Textile DPP likely mandatory

Product rules usually apply around 18 months after the delegated act. Supplier data takes longer than that to collect.

Jul 2030

Destruction ban extends to medium companies

Medium-sized enterprises are also barred from destroying unsold apparel and footwear.

The hard part of a Digital Product Passport is not the QR code. It is getting reliable data from every supplier.

We build the supplier portals and data flows that make your passport accurate, and we have done it in the hardest supply chain there is: fashion.

Talk to a DPP expert
Digital Product Passport standards

Built on open standards, not a proprietary format

The European standards bodies CEN and CENELEC (Joint Technical Committee 24) are writing the harmonised standards that DPP systems will follow. We design every passport around the same building blocks, so your data moves to the official formats as they are finalised, without a rebuild.

DPP requirement What the rules expect How we implement it
Unique identifiers A persistent unique ID for each product (model, batch or item), the economic operator and the facility. Configurable ID schemes using GTIN / GS1 Digital Link or ISO/IEC 15459 identifiers, and operator and facility IDs held as structured data.
Data carrier A carrier physically on the product, packaging or documentation that links to the passport. Bulk-generated QR (ISO/IEC 18004) codes ready for care labels and swing tags, with NFC and RFID options. Print-ready files for your label supplier.
Interoperable data Machine-readable, structured, open formats that authorities and recyclers can process. A structured product data model with JSON-LD output and a REST API, alongside the human-readable consumer page.
Access rights Different information for consumers, businesses and market-surveillance authorities. Role-based views: public consumer passport, logged-in trade and recycler views, and an authority view with compliance documents.
Data integrity & history Accurate, complete, up-to-date data that cannot be altered without trace. Versioned passports, a full audit trail of every change, and approval workflows before anything is published.
Availability & backup The passport must stay available for the product's expected life, with a backup copy. Managed cloud hosting with backups and monitoring, plus registry-ready identifiers for the EU DPP registry.

For Indian exporters and the brands that source from India
Digital Product Passport in India

For Indian exporters and the brands that source from India

India is one of the world's largest textile and apparel exporters, and a large share of that goes to Europe. When EU brands need a passport, they will ask their Indian mills, garment makers and processors for the data behind it: fibre origin, facility details, certifications and test reports.

We are based in Jaipur and already capture this data from Indian supply chains for the Orientique passport, including GOTS-certified organic cotton grown in India. That makes us useful on both sides:

  • Indian manufacturers and exporters: become the supplier that hands EU buyers passport-ready data, and win orders from those who can't.
  • Indian brands selling into the EU: launch compliant passports without hiring a European agency.
  • International brands sourcing from India: a partner in the same time zone as your suppliers, who understands how Indian production actually runs.

Questions

Digital Product Passport FAQs

Not sure whether your products are in scope yet? Ask us on a free 30-minute call and we'll give you a straight answer.

It will be for products sold in the European Union once the delegated act for that product group applies. ESPR is already law; the product-specific dates follow. Battery passports apply from February 2027, and textiles are expected to follow around 2028. Outside the EU, a DPP is voluntary today, but retailers and B2B buyers increasingly ask for the same data.
Yes, if its products are placed on the EU market. The obligation sits with the manufacturer, importer or brand that sells into the EU. Suppliers further up the chain, such as mills and garment makers in India, Bangladesh or Turkey, will be asked to provide the data.
The QR code is only the data carrier: the link on the label. The Digital Product Passport is the structured, verified information it opens, plus the system that keeps it accurate, versioned and available for the life of the product.
The harmonised European standards are being developed by CEN-CENELEC JTC 24, covering identifiers, data carriers, access rights, interoperability and data storage. Existing standards already in use include GS1 identifiers and GS1 Digital Link, ISO/IEC 15459 for unique identifiers and ISO/IEC 18004 for QR codes. We build on these, so passports can move to the final standards without being rebuilt.
No. Any phone camera opens the passport in the browser. There's nothing to download and no login for consumers.
Each delegated act decides the level: model, batch or individual item. Our platform supports all three, so you can start at style level, as Orientique did, and move to batch or item level if the rules require it.
The software side is the quick part. Collecting accurate data from suppliers takes longest, and depends on how many tiers and factories you work with. We usually start with a pilot product line, then roll out across the range. The readiness assessment gives you a realistic plan for your supply chain.
Cost depends on the number of styles or SKUs, the depth of data, the number of suppliers to onboard, and which systems we connect to. There is a one-time set-up and a running cost for hosting and maintenance. We give you a fixed quote after the readiness call.
Yes. Integration is what we have done for 22 years. Passports can pull product data from your ERP, PIM or warehouse system, and link through to your store, including Shopaccino, so the shopper can buy again or find a matching style.
You do. The data belongs to your business, you can export it at any time, and we sign an NDA as standard. Supplier data is visible only to the people you authorise.
