A QR passport keeps you legal. It doesn't protect your profit.
Every passport comes with a QR and the data. Neither stops a copy: a printed code can be photographed and stuck on a fake, and the fake opens your real passport.

Four losses. One chip.
Our Verify chip sits beside the QR. Every tap gets a new one-time code, so a copied label doesn't verify.
Spot a copy
A copied label doesn't verify. Your dealers and customers can tell your pack from a fake.
Refuse fake claims
Tap the pack before you pay a warranty claim.
Proof on demand
Every genuine pack answers a tap and sits in your records. Show which packs are yours.
The passport still opens
If the QR wears or peels, a tap still opens the passport for inspectors and repairers.
Two chips. Tap opens the passport from the chip, even when the QR is damaged. Verify adds the one-time code that tells a genuine pack from a copy. The QR stays on every battery: it is the legal carrier (Article 13(6)).

Battery passport questions.
What is the EU battery passport?
A digital record for each battery, opened by a QR code on the battery. Regulation (EU) 2023/1542 requires it from 18 February 2027.
Does the battery passport apply to batteries made outside the EU?
Yes. Every EV, LMT and industrial battery over 2 kWh sold in the EU needs one, wherever it was made (Article 77(1)).
How many battery passport data points are mandatory?
Commission guidance v2.0 (15 August 2026) lists 71 data points. It marks 49 mandatory for LMT, 46 for EV and 32 for industrial batteries.
Is an NFC chip required for the battery passport?
No. The QR code is the legal carrier (Article 13(6)). Our chip goes beside it, and it is what protects your profit.
Why add a chip if the QR is the law?
The QR meets the law, but a printed code can be copied, and a copy opens your real passport. Our Verify chip answers every tap with a new code, so you can tell your pack from a copy, refuse a fake warranty claim, and still open the passport when the label wears.
Can a Chinese battery maker run the passport for its EU importer?
Yes. Article 77(4) allows written authorisation. Only the EU fields leave China.
How much does a battery passport cost?
With Aeroz, $0.66 to $1.11 a battery for a QR passport, plus a yearly platform fee from $12,000. In euros, €0.12 to €0.99 a battery with no setup fee. Data build, label, ten years of hosting and the registry file are included. US dollars, excluding tax.
What does the chip cost?
We quote the chip with your passport, by chip type and volume. We offer two: ISO/IEC 14443 for the secure tap and ISO/IEC 15693 for product passports.
What happens to our passports if we leave Aeroz?
We hand over every record in the EU format. By law, passports stay online even if an operator stops trading (Article 78(e)).
