About the UPC-E Barcode Generator
Our UPC-E barcode generator is a free and reliable tool for creating condensed barcodes for retail products. UPC-E is a compact, 8-digit barcode that represents a 12-digit UPC-A by suppressing trailing zeros in the manufacturer's code and leading zeros in the product code. This makes it perfect for small product packaging where space is limited.
This tool is designed for ease of use. Simply enter the 7 digits you want to encode, and a high-resolution UPC-E barcode image will be generated instantly. The codes are suitable for printing on labels and product packaging. We believe in providing essential utility tools that are free, fast, and professional-grade.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is UPC-E?
UPC-E is a zero-suppressed version of the UPC-A barcode, primarily used on small products where a full 12-digit UPC-A would not fit. It is an 8-digit code that represents the same information as a 12-digit UPC-A.
How is UPC-E different from UPC-A?
UPC-E is a compacted version of UPC-A. It eliminates unnecessary zeros from the manufacturer's code and product code to create a shorter, more condensed barcode, making it ideal for small items like chewing gum or cosmetics.
How many digits are required to generate a UPC-E barcode?
To generate a valid UPC-E barcode, you must enter exactly 7 digits. Our tool will then perform the zero-suppression and calculate the final checksum digit to create the full 8-digit barcode.
