EAN-13, based upon the UPC-A standard, was implemented by
the International Article Numbering Association (EAN) in Europe.
EAN-13 is a superset of UPC-A. This means that any software
or hardware capable of reading an EAN-13 symbol will automatically
be able to read an UPC-A symbol. The only difference between
EAN-13 and UPC-A is that the number system code in UPC-A is
a single digit from 0 through 9 whereas an EAN-13 number system
code consists of two digits ranging from 00 through 99, which
is essentially a country code.

What kind of data can be encoded by EAN 13?
GS1 GTIN number.
