“While listing our new products on Amazon we received a notification that we needed to prove our ownership of our barcodes. This had never happened before. Thankfully, Buyabarcode.com was able to instantly provide us with the necessary documents and Amazon quickly allowed us to proceed with our listings.”

“I was working on a project for a customer who is launching a new product line on Amazon and was in need of some barcodes for the packaging. I came across buyabarcode.com, reached out and had the codes and documentation required by Amazon in my inbox that same afternoon. Knowledgeable, fast and friendly service. Highly recommended!”

Amazon Sellers and Barcodes.
All you need to know.
If you have any type of standard product, the most important place in the world to sell your products these days is Amazon.com. And as just about every Amazon vendor can attest, the listing process keeps getting stricter and stricter. This is especially true when it comes to barcodes.
After decades of problems with fraudulent barcodes being input into their system, Amazon has finally cracked down on the barcode process.
Now, Amazon wants you to prove that you didn’t just make up your barcode number up out of thin air.
To do this, Amazon will require you to upload the following 2 verification documents:
- A copy of the original GS1 certificate associated with your barcode’s prefix
- A signed Letter of Affiliation with the original company name on the GS1 certificate
Note #1: You’ll only have to upload the documents one time as long as all of the products you are listing have the same prefix.
Note #2: Buyabarcode.com is pleased to be the ONLY seller of barcodes other than GS1 whose barcodes will now work on Amazon.
Please feel free to call us anytime at (888) 446-2633 if you have any questions.
Amazon UPC GS1 barcode requirements

It's important to purchase UPC Amazon product barcodes only from reputable sources such as Buyabarcode
Guaranteed uniqueness
This ensures that every barcode is unique and can be recognized globally. Ensuring that each barcode is unique for accurate product identification and inventory management is important.
Conformity with industry standards
Sources that are trusted adhere to industry standards when it comes to barcode encoding and formatting. Barcodes help ensure compatibility with scanners and systems.
Market requirements
Amazon and other online marketplaces require that sellers use barcodes issued by GS1 to list their products. Amazon mandates that sellers use GS1 barcodes in order to maintain accuracy, avoid confusion and ensure customers.
Authenticity and trust
The use of legitimate barcodes that come from recognized sources will enhance your product's credibility and trust. It shows your commitment to quality and your adherence to industry standards. This can positively impact your relationship with your customers and retailers.
You should be aware that using barcodes that have been resold can cause problems, such as inaccurate product identification and penalties from online marketplaces.
Barcode verification
Use specialized equipment for regular barcode testing to verify that printed barcodes are up to industry standards.
Maintain barcode uniqueness
Each product must have its own UPC. Avoid using the same barcode on multiple products even if there are similarities.
Legitimate UPC Barcodes for Amazon
The first way that UPC barcodes for Amazon are determined to be legitimate is for Amazon to check inside the GS1 database. Amazon looks to see if your company name matches the company name listed beside your UPC barcode’s prefix. If the names do not match exactly, Amazon will reject your UPC barcode.
How are UPC Barcodes verified for Amazon?
The other way that UPC barcodes for Amazon are verified is by having you upload 2 documents during the Amazon listing process. These documents include a signed Letter of Ownership for your UPC Barcode along with a copy of the original GS1 certificate issued for your UPC Barcode’s prefix.
Signed Letter of Ownership and original GS1 certificate for our UPC Barcodes
At Buyabarcode.com, all of our UPC barcodes were purchased by us directly from GS1 and therefore we can legally provide you with the Signed Letter of Ownership along with the original GS1 certificate. In fact, we are the only seller of barcodes aside from GS1 who can legally provide you with these documents and allow you to sell your products on Amazon. None of the other sellers of barcodes can satisfy any of Amazon’s UPC barcode requirements and thus the UPC barcodes they sell will not work.

TOP 10 FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
- Is Buyabarcode the ONLY seller whose barcodes work
on Amazon?
Yes, we are the ONLY barcode seller
whose barcodes work on Amazon!
- How Many Barcodes Do I Need?
Each different product you sell requires its own barcode. For example, if you sell a t-shirt that comes in one color and 3 different sizes you would need to buy 3 barcodes. If the t-shirt comes in 2 sizes and 3 colors you would need 6 barcodes. This way, if one of the colors/sizes is selling faster than the others, the store can simply look in their computer and see which one needs to be replenished without having to do a manual shelf count. This same formula applies for all styles, colors, flavors, sizes or any other variation of your product. They all need their own unique barcode.
- How does information get linked to my barcode?
There is no information actually stored or encrypted in a barcode. When you go to sell your product at a store, that store will have you fill out a product information form. On that form is where you will put your company and product details as well as your 12-digit UPC barcode number. The store then manually enters that information into their inventory management computer. This way, when they scan your barcode at the register, it calls up that form in their system. In other words, the barcode is simply a link between your product and the product information form you fill out for each store that sells your product.
- Will the barcodes work for Amazon and their new
requirements?
Yes, the barcodes we sell work for ALL aspects of Amazon. We are the ONLY barcode seller (other than GS1 and our partner TheBarcodeRegistry.com) whose barcodes will work for all aspects of Amazon - including Amazon Brand Registry. All of the other barcode sellers will have serious limitations on Amazon and you will not be able to register your Brand on Amazon if you purchase barcodes from them.
- Will my barcodes work for any retail product?
Yes, all retail products in the United States (except for magazines and books) require what is called a UPC barcode. Whether you need a barcode for your t-shirt, CD, toaster, or whatever, our barcodes will work for you.
- Will I ever have to pay renewal fees for my barcode?
No. All of our barcode fees are one-time only and you never have to pay any renewal fees or future fees of any kind. Because we joined GS1 / U.C.C. in 1999, before they started charging renewal fees (August, 2002), we don’t have to pay renewal fees. Therefore, you don’t have to pay renewal fees.
- Will my Brand and Products be put into the GS1 Database?
Yes, your Brand and Products will be put into the GS1 Database!
- Will my barcodes work outside the United States?
Yes, the barcodes will work anywhere that barcodes are scanned - which is most of the modern world. This includes Canada, Australia, the UK, Europe, Asia, Mexico, South America, the Middle East, and anywhere else that they use barcodes.
- Will a barcode I purchase on this web site be
unique to me?
Yes. The barcode you purchase from this web site originates from GS1 and is guaranteed to be unique. You are the only person in the world who can legally use that barcode number.
- Why should I purchase barcodes from
Buyabarcode.com?
Recommended by both The Wall Street Journal and The Washington Post, Buyabarcode.com is the most trusted source to buy legitimate UPC Barcodes. Buyabarcode.com is also proud to be the main referral choice of Amazon.com, Whole Foods Markets, and many other leading retailers.
- What are EAN barcodes?
The EAN barcode system is used outside of the U.S. and Canada and is 13 digits long. It is based upon the 12-digit UPC system with the simple addition of a single number that signifies a country code. The great thing about having a 12-digit UPC barcode is that it will work in any country in the world. Therefore, if you have a UPC barcode you do not need an EAN barcode.
- I’m a returning customer but don’t have my login
information. How can I access my account?
You can contact our customer service at 888-446-2633 to access the site as a returning customer. You will be asked to provide a barcode number you previously purchased. We will then give you a one-time special code so that you can use to obtain your returning customer benefits and create a new profile. Once your new profile is created, you will then be able to associate all your previously-purchased and new barcodes to a single, easy-to-manage account.
