Digital Product Passport for WooCommerce

Digital Product Passport for WooCommerce adds the product data the EU Ecodesign for Sustainable Products Regulation (ESPR / EU 2024/1781) asks for, and publishes it three ways: as a passport people can open on the product page, as a QR code that links to it, and as JSON-LD a machine can read through the REST API.

Starting in 2025, the ESPR regulation requires many product categories sold in the EU to carry a Digital Product Passport covering sustainability, material composition, repairability, and end-of-life information. This plugin helps you meet those requirements today.

Key Features

• Full ESPR / EU 2024/1781 Compliance — all mandatory data fields included
• QR Code Generation — one code per product, generated inside the plugin as SVG. No external service, no API key, nothing leaves the site
• GS1 Digital Link — QR codes follow the /01/{gtin}/21/{serial} standard
• JSON-LD Structured Data — schema.org + W3ID DPP ontology (https://w3id.org/dpp/)
• REST API — GET /wp-json/dppass/v1/passport/{id} with HTTP caching headers
• WP-CLI: wp dppass passport and wp dppass settings read and change passports and settings with the checks of the admin screens
• Tab or Button Display — show the passport in a product tab or via a modal button
• Completeness Score — live progress bar showing how complete each passport is
• WooCommerce HPOS Ready — compatible with High Performance Order Storage
• Cart & Checkout Blocks — full Block Editor compatibility declared
• Fully Translatable — all strings use the digital-product-passport-for-woocommerce text domain

Free add-on

Nothing in this plugin is locked or limited. Everything described above works, for every
product, with no key and no account.

A separate add-on, also free, adds work that only larger catalogues need. It is a second
plugin you download from us; this one does not change when you install it, it simply
finds it:

• Analytics Dashboard — track passport views per product with Chart.js charts
• PDF Passport Export — print-optimized HTML passport with your branding
• Bulk Passport Editor — edit all products in a spreadsheet-like grid
• CSV & JSON Import/Export — migrate data or sync with external systems
• Email Notifications — notify admins on passport updates + weekly digest reports
• ACF Integration — sync Advanced Custom Fields with passport data
• WPML & Polylang Support — multilingual passport data
• Branded PDFs — custom logo, company name, and accent color in exports

Developer Hooks

Actions

• dppass_passport_updated( $product_id, $product ): after the passport fields are written, on the product screen and by wp dppass passport set, before WooCommerce saves the product: read the new values from $product, not from the database
• dppass_passport_viewed( $product_id ): when a passport is shown on the product page (used by Pro analytics)
• dppass_passport_content_end( $product_id ): at the end of the passport output (used by the Pro PDF button)

The plugin has no filters. Up to 1.6.3 this section listed hooks with the old dpp_ prefix that the plugin does not fire.

REST API

• GET /wp-json/dppass/v1/passport/{id} — passport by product ID
• GET /wp-json/dppass/v1/passport/gtin/{gtin} — passport by GTIN
• GET /wp-json/dppass/v1/passports?search={term}&per_page={n} — search passports (max 100)

WP-CLI

• wp dppass passport get <product-id> [<field>]: the passport of a product as JSON
• wp dppass passport set <product-id> <field> <value>: change one field with the checks of the product screen: switches take true or false, selections one of their options, numbers their limits, materials and certifications a JSON list. Saving clears the QR code and the cached REST passport and fires dppass_passport_updated, as the product screen does.
• wp dppass passport schema: every field with its type, options and limits
• wp dppass settings get|set|schema: the plugin settings, through the checks of the settings screen

Example: wp dppass passport set 42 materials '[{"name":"Cotton","percentage":60,"recycled":20}]'
