Profesjonalny Generator EAN-13 - Comprehensive Guide
EAN (European Article Number) barcodes are the global standard for identifying retail products. Whether you are selling in a local supermarket or on global marketplaces like Amazon, an EAN barcode is usually required to list your products.
EAN-13 vs EAN-8
The standard EAN-13 encodes 13 digits: a country code, a company prefix, an item reference, and a check digit. EAN-8 is a compressed version used exclusively for small items where a full EAN-13 would not fit (like cosmetics or pencils).
GS1 Compliance
If you intend to sell your products in major retail chains, you must ensure your EAN codes are officially registered through GS1. However, for internal cataloging or testing, our generator creates perfectly formatted, standard-compliant EAN codes.
