The information needed to register a company in the EPREL database and to manage the energy label is summarised in the document «Suppliers-Verification-Guide».
In recent months, several versions of this document have been generated and the links to the different versions that were included in many articles on the EPREL topic no longer work.
The history of changes is as follows:
1.0 | 20 December 2021 | First document version published in December 2021. |
1.01 | 12 January 2022 | Sections «Electronic sealing» and «Verify the organisation» have been updated with emphasis on the “qualified” requirement for seals provided by “qualified” trust service providers. |
1.02 | 13 January 2022 | Section «Important notes before sealing the verification file» updated with a correction for Northern Ireland accepted country codes. |
1.03 | 7 February 2022 | Sections ”Create your organization”, Electronic Sealing” and “Verifying the organisation” have been updated with the new electronic verification requirements and accepted formats for qualified electronic seals. |
1.04 | 22 February 2022 | References to the EUID and to ETSI standard improved and Annex 3 added. |
1.05 | 6 April 2022 | Annex 2, “FAQs”. New FAQs added on “verification”. |
