GS1 Australia's Barcode Check service will close for the holidays at 4:00PM on Tuesday 24 December 2024 and will be operational with reduced staff on Monday 30 December and Tuesday 31 December 2024.
We check for Country of Origin label (CoOL), scan rate, correct size, position, type of barcode and barcode number duplication. A verification report also provides advice on how to correct errors and improve barcode performance.

Why did my barcode fail?
Without accurate and scannable barcodes, you can’t sell your products, retailers can’t stock them and customers can’t buy them.
We have tested more than 1.5 million barcodes including compliance to global standards, size, colour, print quality and packaging.
