When Do I Need a New Barcode?
When Do I Need a New Barcode?
A new barcode is required anytime a product changes in a way that affects how it is sold, tracked, or identified. Common reasons include:
- New design or revised artwork
- New size or color added
- New packaging
- Special edition or seasonal version
- Bundled products or multi-pack versions
If nothing about the product changes, you may continue using the same barcode indefinitely.
