A UK Waste Batteries Regulations identifier allocated to a producer under regulation 28 or regulation 45.
Battery producer registration number is an identifier and obligation reference, not evidence that recycling occurred. It links a producer to scheme membership, reporting periods, and battery producer duties.
This page is limited to the UK Waste Batteries Regulations source layer. The registration number should not be confused with product identifiers, battery passport identifiers, operator approvals, or evidence-note numbers unless another source explicitly connects those objects.
The Waste Batteries and Accumulators Regulations 2009
the registration number allocated to a producer by the appropriate authority under regulation 28 or by the Secretary of State under regulation 45.
Direct UK regulation definition from the interpretation provision for waste-battery producer responsibility and collection/recycling obligations.

Reviewed public draft page. Aligns with battery stewardship operations policy: separates scope gates, approvals, collection, transport, processing, registration, refurbishment, and management-obligation evidence.
UK context: UK Waste Batteries Regulations defines this term in UKSI 2009/890. This is useful UK-side context, not an EU Battery Regulation definition.
Implementation records should capture registration number, producer identifier, compliance scheme, reporting period, battery category, registration status, regulator/source, producer address, evidence note/report link, and update date.
Battery producer registration number is the registration-identity control for UK battery compliance evidence. It should connect producer identity, scheme, period, category, and reports so registration is not confused with product-level identification or proof of treatment.
