This document, prepared by the DigitalTrade4.EU consortium, provides feedback to the European Commission on strengthening the EU’s leadership in green and digital trade, with a focus on the development and implementation of the Digital Product Passport (DPP). It outlines strategic recommendations to enhance the EU’s competitiveness, supply chain transparency, and sustainability. The document emphasizes the importance of harmonizing global standards, promoting paperless trade through legal frameworks like MLETR, ensuring secure digital identities via eIDAS 2.0, and fostering interoperability of digital systems. It also highlights the role of international cooperation, particularly with Asia through agreements like DEPA and the EU-Singapore Digital Trade Agreement, in advancing the EU’s green-digital agenda.
