Uploading Barcodes

Table of Contents

All products for sale must have barcodes. You can use:

  • your own barcodes. For example, provided by the manufacturer;
  • unique Ozon barcodes. You can generate them in your account or when creating your first warehouse supply.

Reasons for using barcodes

You can’t add products without barcodes to the supply request.

If the barcode on the product doesn’t match the one in your account, the product is rejected at the FBP warehouse. Some partners offer relabeling service and print labels with the correct barcode for additional fee. If the service isn’t available, you have to pick up the product.

If you ship products from your warehouse, the shipping provider may accept them without a barcode and deliver them to the customer using the packaging label. However, if there is a barcode, we can identify the product if the packaging label is damaged.

A barcode is necessary to identify the product if the packaging label is damaged. If there is no barcode, we can’t pay compensation in case of loss. Starting March 17, 2026, if a barcode isn’t specified on the PDP when a customer places an order, we still process the order. However, compensation for shipping loss isn’t paid by Ozon.

Rules for adding barcodes:

  • in one SellerID account, you must have different barcodes for each product;
  • if the SellerID accounts are different, the barcodes may be the same.

Add barcodes in your account

For all products

  1. Open the Products → Add products → Attribute update → Update barcodes section.
  2. Open the Without barcode tab.
  3. You can:
    • generate barcodes automatically for the entire list: click Generate for all and confirm the action;
    • specify the barcodes manually: click Add next to the product.

For one product

Open the Products → Add products → Attribute update → Update barcodes section. In the All products tab, select a product and click Add next to it. Choose whether you want to specify the barcode manually or generate it. Click Save.

Add barcodes when creating a supply

  1. In the Create supply request section, select the storage warehouse and add products you want to supply.
  2. If some of the products don’t have barcodes, you’ll see an error. You can view the error reasons and a link to add barcodes in the notification.

Barcode generation

The system creates a unique barcode for each product. It consists of the OZN characters and the Ozon SKU ID product identifier.

Example: If Ozon SKU ID is 1234567891, The system generates the barcode OZN1234567891.

Generating barcodes takes some time. Once it’s complete, you can view the generated code in an OZNXXXXXXXXXX form.

View the product barcodes list

Open the Products → Add products → Attribute update → Update barcodes or Products → Product list pages and click on the barcode. You’ll see the list of barcodes for this product.

Delete and change barcodes

You can delete or change barcodes that are on verification or created less than 48 hours ago:

  1. Open the Products → Add products → Attribute update → Update barcodes or Products → Product list pages.
  2. Select a product and click on its barcode.
  3. In the window to the right of the barcode, click and select an action.

You can’t delete or edit the barcodes if:

  • products were sold under the FBP scheme and ran out of stock less than 6 months ago;
  • barcodes were generated automatically. Example of such a barcode: OZN32322342.

Barcode content

If you have several active barcodes linked in your account, the warehouse accepts your products with any of them.

The printed barcode contains:

  • the code you specified or generated by Ozon;
  • product name.

Download barcodes

  1. Open the Products → Add products → Attribute update → Update barcodes or Products → Product list sections. In the product row, click and select Download PDF.

  2. Select the printer type. For a barcode printer, the system adapts the size of the barcodes to the ribbon printing. For an office printer, specify the number of copies and size. It depends on the paper format, the manufacturer barcode, and the product itself. Size options:

  • small: 30:20 mm;
  • medium: 43:25 mm;
  • large: 58:40 mm.
  1. Click Download PDF. Stick printed barcodes on each product. If barcodes are printed on an office printer, cut them out manually before sticking.

Stick barcodes

Stick a barcode on each product while preparing for the supply. If the product needs additional packaging, stick on it the same product barcode from your account.

The barcode on the product must:

  • be a single copy, easy visible and not cover expiration dates and product description;
  • completely cover the old barcode and be readable. For example, it should not be crumpled.

In all cases, the barcode on the product must match the barcode in your account at the time of supply.
