Proposal for a Commission Implementing Regulation laying down the implementation arrangements for the digital product passport registry set up under Regulation (EU) 2024/1781 of the European Parliament and of the Council; (23 page(s), in English)

As part of the Ecodesign for Sustainable Products Regulation (ESPR), the Digital Product Passport was introduced to provide easy access to digital information related to a product's sustainability, circularity and legal compliance. This initiative will establish the implementing arrangements for the Digital Product Passport Registry. It will set out the main components of the registry and lay down the technical and operational roles and obligations of economic operators placing a product on the market or putting it into service and other value chain actors (such as, but not limited to, digital product passport service providers, authorised representatives, repairers, refurbishers, remanufacturers, recyclers) within the framework of the digital product passport registry, competent national authorities and customs authorities, and the Commission. Furthermore, it will establish a log system in order to record and monitor the operations and interactions carried out in the registry in order to ensure accountability for all users, and delineate the responsibility for the maintenance, operation and security of the registry.
