ISBN Barcodes for Books
Books require an ISBN Number (International Standard Book Number), which gets turned into a barcode image.
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 for a UK publication, you have two options:
1. UK ISBN Agency. The cost for one ISBN (without barcode images) is £89.00.
2. Independent Publishing Network. They can supply an ISBN (with barcode images) for £40.00 or without images for £30.00.
YES – If you already have an ISBN but don’t have a barcode for it, you can order the barcode images below.
NOTE: You’ll be asked to enter your ISBN into the additional information section when you get to the checkout page. Your ISBN will be automatically turned into barcode images and emailed straight away.
For more information, please see: ISBN Barcodes: Your Guide to Getting and Using Them.

You will receive your ISBN barcode images immediately by email (in 5 different formats). You can choose which format to use when printing the barcode picture onto your book cover. We will email your barcode images to you in the standard 13-digit EAN format (i.e. Directly encoding your 13-digit ISBN into the 13-digit EAN barcode). However, we can optionally add a 5-digit price code at the end of your main barcode if you request this in the ‘additional information section when ordering. The price code can encode a price of up to ‘99.99’ GBP. Please note, however, that most barcode scanners do not ‘pick up’ price codes (only some scanners do), and it is not common in the UK for book barcodes to include price codes. If you want your barcode to include a price code, please specify what price code you want in the “additional information” section when placing your order.

Barcode Registration
“Barcode Registration” means that you can register your barcode number and product/company details on the International Barcodes Database (information that you submit to that database also filters through to several other online barcode databases).Add the quantity you require to the cart, and then proceed to check out. Please enter your barcode number(s) in the “additional information” section when you get to the check out page.
Once we receive your order for Barcode Registration we will email you to request proof of ownership (so that we can verify that you are the owner of that barcode number). We will then activate your barcode number for registration and give you instructions for how to register your barcode.
Please note that Barcode Registration is included for free if you buy one of our EAN or UPC barcode packages or barcode numbers.
