ISBN Book Barcodes
All books use International Standard Book Number (ISBN) barcodes. These are obtained through a designated organisation within each country. If you already have a ISBN Number and require the barcode images for it, then the images can be purchased from us below. If you do not have an ISBN Number then you can find the designated organisation for your country here.
ISBN Numbers can also be encoded with a 5 digit price code onto the end of them. These codes can encode a price of up to ‘99.99’ in GBP, USD or CAD only. These price codes will be picked up by some scanners and can make it easier for retailers to establish the recommended retail price for books, however most scanners do not read this code at all and it is not common practice for ISBN numbers to have this price code. If you wish to have a price code added for your ISBN number, please indicate to us that this is what you would like, and what price and currency the price code should represent in the ‘additional information’ section when filling out your information.
Do you have an ISBN Number?
NO – You’ll need to get an ISBN Number before we can provide you with the barcode images for it. To get an ISBN number you need to contact your local ISBN Agency. The contact details for all the ISBN Agencies worldwide can be found on the ISBN International website.
If you have a magazine, you will need to see our ISSN Magazine barcode page.
