Eurodata Council (E.D.C.) is accredited Issuing Agency for unique Company Identification Codes (CIN) according to ISO/IEC 15459-2. The Issuing Agency Code (IAC) is "QC". E.D.C. registers alphanumeric CIN's, 4 characters long, e.g. ABCD. The fee for a CIN is 100 euro per year.

Open CINs for free use for demo and test purposes.

The for demo and test purposes registered and published
CIN's: "DEMO" and "TEST" can be used by anyone to build demo codes and/or test codes, for example for evaluation of ISO/IEC 15459-x codes, ISO/IEC 20248 digital signatures, AutoIT URLs, etc.
Note: Codes with CIN's "DEMO" and "TEST" therefore naturally do not have the claim to be unique to a specific user, as is the case with all other registered CIN's.


Companies or institutions that have obtained a registered company identification code, are in the position to structure its  Barcodes, 2D-Codes, RFID Tags for unique identification over alle logistical levels, e.g.:

  • on the products by direct marking: By Laser, Inkjet, etc. according to ISO/IEC 15459-4 / DIN 66401 UIM (see fig. 1)
  • on packages: Inkjet, labelling, etc. according to ISO 22742
  • on transport units: labelling according to ISO 15394, or EN 1573
  • on Returnable Transport Items (RTI's) according to ISO/IEC 15459-5
  • on documents like delivery notes, invoices, etc. e.g. according to EDC document "Paper EDI"
  • on equipment for inventory and maintenance control according to DIN 66277 eName Plate
  • and on any item to be identified uniquely, even personal and patient wrist bands
