Validate GTIN-8, GTIN-12, GTIN-13 and GTIN-14 identifiers or compute a missing check digit while preserving leading zeros.
How to use GTIN check digit calculator
- Choose whether each input already includes its check digit.
- Choose the complete GTIN length and paste one identifier per line.
- Review every record, including invalid entries, then download CSV and JSON.
Useful next steps
Preserve identifiers as text
Leading zeros belong to the identifier. Import GTIN columns as text in spreadsheet applications. The GTIN-14 padded form is shown only for valid or successfully completed identifiers.
Local processing and exports
Processing runs on your device. CSV downloads quote every cell and protect formula prefixes by default. JSON preserves original strings and includes the report and result tables. Spreadsheet import settings can still change identifiers; import them as text.
