EAN 8 Info
An EAN-8 is a barcode and is derived from the longer European Article Number (EAN-13) code. It was introduced for use on small packages where an EAN-13 barcode would be too large; for example on cigarettes, pencils (though it's not commonly used for pencils) and chewing gum packets.
EAN-8 barcodes may be used to encode GTIN-8s which are another set of product identifiers from the GS1 System. It begins with a 2 or 3 digit GS1 prefix (which is assigned to each national GS1 authority) 5 or 4-digit item reference element depending on the length of the GS1 prefix), and a checksum digit.
EAN-8 codes are common throughout the world, and companies may also use them to encode RCN-8s (8-digit Restricted Circulation Numbers) used to identify own-brand products which are only sold in their stores. These are formatted as 0xxx xxxx or 2xxx xxxx.
