What are the difference between EAN and UPC?

The "Universal Product Code" is known as "UPC-A" and EAN number stands for "European Article Number".


You can notice that the EAN and UPC barcodes are identical if you look at the picture above. The bars' width and the distances between them are the same precise width.


The positioning of the numerals below is the only significant difference between these two.


They solely serve as a backup in the event that the barcode cannot be read properly and manual entry of the data into the register or POS is required (point of sale system).


Because GS1 at the time didn't respect the significance of Canada and the USA indicating a country code, it does not appear beneath the barcode in a UPC.


As the bulk of goods sold in both nations come from importers, wholesalers, or producers in the Canada or USA, GS1 believed they could omit the leading zero in the numbers that are visible to humans.
