How it works
About this code
EAN-8 is a compact retail barcode that encodes eight digits, including a check digit. It is intended for use where the relevant product numbering rules permit it; the smaller format is not a substitute for obtaining an assigned identifier.
- Enter 7 digits to calculate the check digit, or provide all 8 digits for validation.
- Confirm EAN-8 is appropriate for the product and retail system.
- Test the printed size with the scanner and packaging before production.
Common questions
Can I use EAN-8 for any product?
Not automatically. Product number assignment and eligibility depend on applicable GS1 rules and your retail partners.
Does this tool validate the assigned owner of a number?
No. It checks the numeric format and check digit only; it cannot verify who owns or may use an identifier.
