Ensure global retail compliance with an official Barcode Verification Report.
While most domestic retailers in India do not require a formal verification report, some major supermarkets and hypermarkets in the USA, Australia, New Zealand and elsewhere may demand one. A Barcode Verification is an official, diagnostic test scan of your final printed packaging to prove your barcode meets international standards.
Stop! Read this before you print your packaging.
A verification test grades the physical print quality of your barcode. To ensure you pass the test (and avoid costly reprints), please have your graphic designer read these two guides before sending your artwork to the printer:
How the verification process works:
-
Step 1: Place Your Order. Purchase the verification service below.
-
Step 2: Mail Your Sample. Post a physical sample of your barcode exactly as it is printed on the final label or product packaging. Find our postal address here.
-
Step 3: Diagnostic Testing. We scan your packaging using high-tech, internationally recognized verification equipment.
-
Step 4: Receive Your Report. Within three days of receiving your physical sample, we email you the official report. A grade of A, B, C, or D is a Pass. Grades E or F indicate a Fail.
Order Your Verification Test
Once your order is complete, please mail your physical packaging sample to our testing facility.

Ensuring Consistent Barcode Quality
For small producers scaling up, failing a verification test can result in rejected shipments and wasted packaging. Follow these best practices to ensure your barcodes are universally readable.
1. Follow the Standards
Never guess the dimensions. Familiarize yourself with exact UPC and EAN magnification standards. Adhering to these rules ensures your barcodes meet strict retailer requirements.
2. Monitor Print Quality
Pay close attention to print resolution, ink contrast, and your packaging substrate. Glossy or metallic curves can warp scans. Ensure your printing equipment is well-maintained.
3. Implement Testing
Develop a consistent process for checking quality at various stages of production. Regular spot-checks help catch and correct mechanical printing issues early.
4. Use Verification Tools
While standard laser scanners are great for daily operations, they cannot grade print quality. True verification tools measure against ISO standards for complete quality control.
5. Train Your Team
Educate your warehouse and design teams on the importance of barcode contrast and quiet zones (the empty space around the code) to maintain operational efficiency.
6. Keep Records
Maintain records of your formal verification results. This provides valuable data for troubleshooting if a retailer ever claims your product will not scan.
