Please follow the links below for instruction on obtaining the relevant barcodes.

EAN-13 Barcodes – For retail products outside of the USA and Canada

International Article Numbers, formerly EAN (European Article Numbers) comprise 13-digits. They are used worldwide on all retail products excluding books and magazines. They are the most widely used barcodes globally with the exception of in the USA and Canada where UPC-A(Universal Product Codes) barcodes are more common. Each EAN-13 is product-specific and encoded into a barcode image. This means that when the barcode is scanned into store systems, price and inventory data related to your product is recorded. A different EAN-13 number, therefore, is required for each unique product.

 

UPC-A Barcodes – For products selling in the USA and Canada

(* but some Egyptian customers found UPC-A is easier to scan in the shops of their retailers)

12-digit UPC Barcodes are used predominantly in the USA and Canada on all retail products, with the exception of books and magazines

 

 

ITF-14 Barcodes – For carton and box of your products

ITF-14 Carton Codes are created from EAN-13 and UPC-A barcodes. They are only used in warehouses on cartons containing a specific quantity of the item that the product barcode represents. They should not be used for any products that are for sale individually at a retail level.

 

ISBN Book Barcodes – For book

International Standard Book Numbers (ISBN) are barcodes for both hard copy and e-books. ISBNs usually start with 978 and are distributed by ISBN agencies in each country (seeisbninternational.org/agency). They can also be obtained through independent publishing agencies such asbookisbn.org.uk, used for self-publishing authors.
Note: Crossword, puzzle and colouring books are not published books so do not use ISBN barcodes. They use standard retail barcodes (EAN or UPC).

 

ISSN Magazine Barcodes – For magazine

An International Standard Serial Number (ISSN) is a unique 8-digit number used to identify periodical publications such as magazines and journals. They can be applied for at issn.org/services/requesting-an-issn.

 

 

Only apply for an ISSN if your publications meet the following criteria:

  • They are serials (journals, newspapers, magazines, monographic series etc.)
  • They are ongoing integrating resources (websites, databases etc.)
