EAN-13 barcode generator
Type your number and download a print-ready barcode. It runs in your browser, nothing is uploaded, no sign-up.
The example uses 0614141, the sample prefix GS1 uses in its own documentation. Don't print it on real products.
The generator draws the barcode. The number has to come from GS1.
Any 13 digits with a correct check digit will produce a barcode that scans. But marketplaces and shops look the number up: a made-up code may belong to someone else's product or to a range nobody was assigned. Get your numbers from GS1 or buy them from us, then use this tool to draw them.
Questions
Are the barcodes free to use?
Yes. The images are yours to print on packaging, labels and listings. The number inside must be one you own.
What is the check digit?
The last digit of an EAN-13, calculated from the first 12. Scanners use it to catch typos. Enter 12 digits and the generator adds it for you.
Can I make a barcode for a UPC code?
Yes. Enter the 12-digit UPC and the generator turns it into the equivalent EAN-13 by adding a 0 in front.
What size should I print it?
The standard EAN-13 is 37.29 × 25.93 mm. You can scale it from 80% to 200%. The SVG file keeps sharp edges at any size.
