Keep selling into the EU — without drowning in compliance.
Your EU importer may hold the legal obligation, but the passport data, technical file and evidence all land on you. zevoyt takes that burden off your team — from supplier data to scannable label.
The law names the importer. The work falls on you.
Any business placing a product on the EU market must comply — EU manufacturers, non-EU manufacturers exporting to the EU, importers and distributors. In practice, only the manufacturer has the data. Buyers increasingly make passport-readiness a condition of the order.
What you need to sell into the EU — and how we help
Under the Ecodesign for Sustainable Products Regulation (ESPR, EU 2024/1781) and the Battery Regulation (EU 2023/1542).
| Requirement | What it means | How zevoyt helps |
|---|---|---|
| EU Authorised Representative | A non-EU manufacturer appoints an EU-based representative to act on its behalf with authorities. | Give your representative or importer direct, permissioned access to every passport. |
| Technical documentation | A technical file showing the product meets ecodesign requirements — materials, tests, calculations. | Supplier evidence is collected, structured and linked to each product automatically. |
| EU Declaration of Conformity | A signed declaration that the product conforms to applicable EU law. | Store your signed declaration and attach it to every relevant passport. |
| CE marking / conformity assessment | Where the product group requires it, assessment and CE marking before market placement. | Track which products need it and keep the evidence in one place. |
| The DPP itself | A unique identifier, a data carrier (QR, Data Matrix, RFID) and the data record required by your sector. | Generated to EN 18219 / 18220 and GS1 Digital Link, with print-ready labels. |
| EU DPP registry entry | Unique identifiers registered in the Commission’s central registry so authorities can access passports. | Registry-ready identifiers and exports. |
| Sector-specific evidence | Batteries: due diligence and carbon-footprint declarations. Textiles: fibre composition, REACH/SVHC chemical compliance, eco-labels such as OEKO-TEX or GOTS. | Sector templates list exactly what to collect — and flag what’s missing or expiring. |

Your mills and dye houses don’t have ERPs. They don’t need one.
The single hardest part of a passport is getting verified data from tier-2 and tier-3 suppliers. zevoyt was designed for exactly those suppliers — mobile-first, in their language, with nothing to install.
- Invite by link or WhatsApp — suppliers open it on any phone.
- Photo, upload or voice — certificates, fibre composition and test reports, captured in minutes.
- Gujarati, Hindi and English — so the person who has the data can answer directly.
- Automatic structuring into your sector’s EU data model, with gaps flagged.
- Upload once, reuse everywhere — a supplier’s data serves every product and every buyer it applies to.

We’re inside the supply chain Europe is trying to see into
Proximity, language and trust matter when the data you need sits with a dye house in Surat or a spinner in Ahmedabad.

Among the world’s largest man-made fabric and apparel clusters — our first focus, on our doorstep.
Chemicals, dyes & ceramics
Gujarat leads India in chemicals and dyes and is home to Morbi’s ceramics cluster — all future DPP categories.

What exporters ask us
Does India have its own DPP law?
Not a general one yet. India is introducing a QR-based battery passport framework (developed by NITI Aayog with the Ministry of Road Transport & Highways), and the Bureau of Indian Standards is examining DPPs for electronics. But if you sell into the EU, EU rules apply to your products regardless of Indian law.
Do I need an EU Authorised Representative?
If you are a non-EU manufacturer placing products on the EU market directly, generally yes — they act on your behalf with EU authorities. If you sell through an EU importer, the importer takes on certain obligations. Either way, they will need your passport data, which zevoyt lets you share with them securely.
My EU buyer hasn’t asked yet. Should I wait?
Getting DPP-ready typically takes 18–36 months, mostly because of supplier data. Buyers will choose suppliers who are ready. Starting early also lets you use the data for sustainability claims and tenders now. Try the deadline checker.
What happens if the delegated act for my sector changes?
We update the sector template and your existing data maps onto it. You only collect what’s new. That’s why we build to open standards rather than a fixed schema.
Who owns the data my suppliers upload?
You and your suppliers do. Our contracts include clear data-ownership clauses, and you can export everything in open formats at any time. See Trust & security.
