Thanks for pointing it. I also have Passat with a factory electric tailgate system. It has exactly the same battery, just one year older. I put the battery from Golf to Passat and the tailgate was working perfectly. On the other hand, the battery from Passat didn't solve the problem when installed in Golf... So it could be the car logic. Maybe connecting it to the diagnostic software would show where the problem is. It should see the tailgate system and maybe there is a way to allow it to work when the engine is off?
