Colloquially, many know GTIN as a barcode, but technically, GTIN is the number found beneath the barcode symbol itself, and can therefore also be used for other technologies such as 2D barcodes and RFID tags.
At GS1 Denmark, we invoice many of our services once a year – in January.

When you receive your annual invoice from us, the price may vary from previous years – and that is perfectly normal. This is usually because your usage of a given GS1 service has changed (up or down). The price of GS1’s data-supported services, such as GS1Trade Sync and GS1Trade Packaging, is usage-based.
At the same time, please note that GS1 Denmark’s prices, in accordance with the general terms and conditions and user terms for GS1 Trade Services, are adjusted on an ongoing basis – at least annually according to the net price index. See the current prices at any time here.
