Can I use any 14-digit number on a retail label?

No. Use the GTIN assigned to your product, padded with leading zeroes to 14 digits where needed. This tool checks or calculates the final check digit; it does not assign a product number or confirm registration. Check that your retailer accepts this barcode and test a label at its final printed size.

How do I check the code before printing?

Leave the white margins intact, keep the image in proportion and scan a sample at its final printed size with the device you intend to use.
