EAN - 8
The European Article Numbering system, or EAN, is a superset of the UPC symbology that was introduced in 1978. The EAN symbology is used in retail applications around the world. EAN scanners can decode both UPC and EAN barcodes, but UPC scanners built before 1978 may not be able to decode EAN barcodes. This is because the EAN symbology is derived from the UPC symbology. The EAN-8 is composed of two flag digits, five data digits (assigned by the Country Coding Authority), and one check digit. EAN-8 accepts numbers 0-9.
