UPC to GS1 Barcode Change | DiGital FaQeer e-Commerce Services

UPC's GS1 Barcode Conversion Services

Having issues with product listings being removed or GS1 barcode authentication errors? My Amazon experts provide hassle-free service to resolve and fix these issues for you.

Amazon changed its policy regarding GS1 barcodes and began removing products from listings that do not have a GS1 certified barcode. The problem is caused by the name in the UPC barcode not matching the name of the name.

Frequently Asked Questions about Barcode Updates

What documents or information should I provide ordering?

GS1 Certified UPC Barcodes

How long does it take to make the change on Amazon?

Generally, it would take 3 to 4 weeks. It might change depending on several factors.

If the original ASINs change, will the new ASIN have different inventory?

No. The inventory will not be affected by the ASIN change.

Is the service guaranteed to work?

We would not offer this service if we were not confident we could do it. As of 10/13/22 we guarantee the success of your UPC change or 100% money back guaranteed (after 45 days from order without success)

What impact does changing the UPC have?

Minimal. There are no impacts to Reviews and BSR.

Labels – We recommend changing your UPC barcodes on your boxes, but you can also simply print Amazon barcode labels (FNSKU oklabels). From our experience, the old UPCs still associate with the ASINs, and still scan into FBA. But as a proactive measure in case this changes, we suggest you update your labels

Inventory – All current inventory at FBA is unaffected.

What is the scope of work for this service?

We will only change the UPC field for this service. Any issues such as a removed or yanked ASIN that needs reinstatement require an additional purchase from our website

Will my listings be down while the change is being made?

We don’t need to take down an ASIN to change a UPC, but there are times when Amazon will create a new ASIN to remove the incorrect UPC from the original listing. We rarely encounter this nowadays. But should this happen, we would just re-list your ASIN with everything intact and a very small chance of 24 hours of downtime.

Will the old UPC section just update to the new GS1 in Seller Central?

Yes

After the conversion , do we just send in our products with the new GS1 code and it will scan through as well with no FNSKU?

Yes. We recommend updating labels to new GS1 on next manufacturing run.

Will the mix of products that have the old UPC barcodes and the same products with the new GS1 barcodes cause any inventory issues? Will any inventory in FBA warehouses that still use the old UPC barcodes be discarded?

No. The old UPC and new GS1 will exist on the same ASIN and both are usable. They can check both in and it won’t cause any stock or inventory issues. Just remember to use the new GS1 barcodes in succeeding manufacturing runs.

Testimonials

I just wanted to say thanks for taking the time to reach out in response to my comment - I'll definitely schedule an appointment. I added Amazon as a sales channel at the end of last year, and the content that you put together has been incredibly helpful in managing the unique "quirks" (major understatement) of Amazon. Thanks for all of the time and effort you put into providing such high quality content!

This is exactly you projected timeframe of 30 dyas after getting the logo mark registration number from USPTO.
