SSCC validation

GS1 SSCC-18 shipping container code — checksum: GS1 mod-10 (weights 3,1). Free in your browser, or over the JSON API.

What it is

GS1 SSCC-18 shipping container code. CodeCheck verifies three things separately — format, length and check digit — and returns the expected and provided check digit, so a failed value tells you exactly what is wrong instead of just saying no.

Algorithm

GS1 mod-10 (weights 3,1). The answer is derived from the value itself, with no database lookup and no third-party call, so it is deterministic, fast and privacy-safe.

Examples

ValueResultExpectedProvided

API

curl "https://<your-worker>.workers.dev/v1/validate/sscc/123456789012345675"

This type has a single trailing check digit, so CodeCheck can also compute it:

GET /v1/complete/sscc/{body}

Try it in the browser demo — the demo runs the same code offline.
