Requesting a New Size Code from GS1 US

If you do not find the exact size code you want in the list of size codes on the Size Code List page, you can submit a request to GS1 US to add a new code.

Note: New color codes cannot be requested.

Use the procedure below to fill out the registration information and submit the request. The information is emailed to OpenText Cloud Support Services (CSS) for validation. After validation, OpenText forwards the request to GS1 US for consideration; you will be notified if a new code is created.
