Prefixul GS1 nu identifica tara de origine a marfurilor: indica doar intervalul alocat pentru atribuirea numerelor de identificare GS1 intreprinderilor care solicita acestea intr-o anumita tara. In plus, acest produs poate fi produs in orice alta tara din lume.
Sistemul GS1 din tarile individuale este administrat de organizatiile nationale GS1 respective. Pe baza prefixelor care le sunt atribuite, organizatiile nationale GS1, active in peste 152 de tari din intreaga lume, atribuie prefixe de companie intreprinderilor membre, care sunt la randul lor utilizate de intreprinderi pentru a genera numere de identificare GS1.
