EAN-8 / JAN-8 Bar Code Symbology

EAN-8 / JAN-8 is a linear (1D) type bar code that is used for product marking intended for the retail supply chain world-wide for applications where a country code is required and with zero suppression of the encoded data. Zero suppression allow for smaller bar codes on packaging that is too small to support a full sized EAN-13 / JAN-13. The UPC-E symbology is actually a subset of the EAN-8/JAN-8 symbology. This bar code is composed of seven (7) digits and a checksum character.
