Methods to identify the authenticity of barcodes

1. The first three codes from left to right are national codes. The codes assigned to our country by the International Barcode Organization are 690, 691, 692 and 693*** Four kinds.

2. The 4-7th or 4-8th digit code from left to right is the manufacturer information code, which together with the first 3 digits of the country code form the manufacturer identification code.

3. The 8th to 12th digits or the 9th to 12th digits from left to right are coded as product information codes, which specifically include the name, specifications, price and other information of the product.

4. The last digit is encoded as the verification code.
