Hello,

the first 3 digits of a barcode indicate the country of origin.
for example, from 30 to 37, it’s France.
Which country corresponds to barcodes starting with 202?*
Thank you in advance

    Codes starting with 2 are free to use; it is not necessary to be a member of the EAN system to use them. However, they cannot be used for the identification of the producer. They are frequently used in supermarkets for products that, for one reason or another, are not marked with the EAN symbol, such as products sold by weight, coming from a developing country, or from a small business.

      cela ne me donne pas la liste des pays : par exemple j'aimerais bien savoir quand j'achète un produit qui vient de Chine ou de Corée ....

      Hello Tarzan, the first two digits do not indicate the country of production, but that of the distributor. Therefore, a product can be manufactured in China (PRC) and its EAN start with 3 if the importer or distributor is French.
