PassPer / Solutions / For Importers
Most exposed · Least served

For EU importers, the obligation lands on you.

If you place a product on the EU market, you bear full DPP responsibility — for products you didn't design, with no upstream data, and no compliance team. That includes the battery inside your product: import an e-bike, a machine or a vehicle, and the battery-passport obligation lands on you — not the factory. Incumbents charge enterprise rates to ignore your segment. We built the entire Importer Shield surface for you.

The importer problem

Four reasons importers are structurally exposed under ESPR.

PROBLEM 01

The obligation transfers, the data doesn't

You're the responsible economic operator for every product you import — but the design, BOM, supplier and certificate data all sit upstream, in factories you didn't run.

PROBLEM 02

No compliance function to absorb it

Most importers are 5–50 person teams optimised for sourcing and logistics. There's no QA director, no sustainability lead, no regulatory counsel on staff.

PROBLEM 03

Foreign suppliers, foreign formats

Spec sheets in Mandarin, certificates from regional bodies, invoices that don't match BOMs. Reconciling all of this manually is months of work.

PROBLEM 04

Enterprise pricing wasn't built for your scale

Tier-1 traceability vendors quote €100k+ implementation, won't publish pricing, and set minimums of 10,000 SKUs. PassPer is built for teams that need real compliance without a six-figure engagement.

Most traceability vendors won't quote a 20-person importer. PassPer's pricing is published, starts at €79/month, and the pilot is free — the same platform at every size.

The Importer Shield

A dedicated surface,
built for how importers actually work.

Red / amber / green,

  • Per-SKU verdict against all active regulations
  • Inline remediation: exactly which evidence, from whom
  • Shipment-level rollup for customs planning
  • Snapshot & freeze for audit defense

The exact next call you need to make.

The Shield turns your compliance backlog into a sorted action list — by supplier, by urgency, by the cost of inaction. Each row tells you what to chase, from whom, with the chase already in flight.

  • Sorted by impact: which gaps block the most inventory
  • Auto-chase: emails, escalations, WhatsApp where appropriate
  • Multi-language outreach to foreign suppliers
  • Live SLA timer per supplier · response-rate analytics
