Goods marking is a large-scale project intended to ensure transparency of the national economy and “whitening” of the market. The marking guarantees to the customer that the product is authentic, and protects the EAEU market from low-quality goods. The manufacturer/importer labels every product item with a unique DataMatrix marking code which confirms product authenticity when scanned.

Decree of the President of the Republic of Belarus dated June 10, 2011 No. 243, 2.6, nominates RUE “Belblankavyd Publishing House” the operator of the system of goods marking with unified control marks or means of identification. For technical support of goods marking, visit www.datamark.by, where you can find documents, marking procedures and other information. Should the provided sources fail to answer a question, feel free to contact the support service by any suitable channel. The matters of law application to goods marking with means of identification shall be commented by the Ministry of Taxes and Duties. For official comments, visit nalog.gov.by.

The marking code contains unique information about every product item. It is represented as a GS1 DataMatrix 2D barcode and consists of the following data blocks:

• GTIN (Global Trade Item Number): 14 numerical characters generated by GS1
• Individual trade item serial number: 13 characters (20 characters for photography accessories) generated by the Belarusian operator (SIS “Electronic Mark”)
• “Crypto-tail”: digital signature (4-digit verification key + 44-digit verification code (88 digits for footwear)) generated by the operator (SIS “Electronic Mark”)

To generate a GS1 DataMatrix code, product groups are separated with dedicated reserved delimiting characters (GS1 application identifiers).

Before a marking code, every product shall be assigned GTIN (Global Trade Item Number), which can be obtained from Association for Automatic Identification GS1 Belarus upon product registration in the Goods ePASS Databank. Once extended data are correctly entered into the Goods ePASS Databank, the datasheet is automatically submitted to SIS “Electronic Mark” which will relieve from the need to describe the product again, in the marking system. A marking code may be ordered from the Belarusian operator after the product datasheet is successfully registered in the Electronic Mark system.

Shipment of marked goods to a Russian company shall be reported to SIS “Electronic Mark”. The information shall be automatically transmitted to the Russian operator and be available to the consignee through the Chestny ZNAK system.

A marking code, once obtained, shall be converted and printed. There are following options to choose from:

1. Find a GS1 DataMatrix generator or a label maker on the Internet yourself.
2. Ask your recording system developer or a third-party goods marking software developer/hardware supplier to tune and set the GS1 DataMatrix
3. Contact Belblankavyd Publishing House or any other marking service provider: Beltamozhservice, Bremino group, Ferenzgroup, Astron, etc.

Global Trade Item Number is used for unique identification of a product on the market. The GTIN is applied onto the product packaging as a barcode. The basic principle of the international automatic identification system says that products with differing properties (grade, weight, type, colour, model, size, etc.) shall be assigned different codes (trade item numbers), so that every product has its own unique GTIN (barcode).

GTIN may consist of 8, 12, 13 or 14 digits, according to the kind of goods. Therefore, GTIN number under GS1 standards may be maximum 14 digits long, with preceding zeroes added to fill missing spaces on the left. Thus, a 13-digit GTIN shall have an added “0” in the beginning.

Follow steps 1 through 9 of the Guidelines for storage, transportation and distribution of goods subject to labelling with control marks or identification means, approved by Resolution of the Ministry of Taxes and Duties of the Republic of Belarus No. 17 dated 03.05.2021 (the Guidelines). Step 1. Accept the shoes. Step 2. Issue a confirmation document – Unmarked Goods Acceptance Certificate (see the form in the Guidelines) (the Certificate). The Certificate must be signed by the seller and the buyer (or their representatives) and have available documents enclosed (sales receipt or other purchase confirmation documents, copy of the sale agreement, etc.). Step 3. The day the Certificate is issued transport the shoes to the storage place together with the Certificate and hard-copy (optionally – electronic) waybill. Step 4. Store the unmarked shoes together with the Certificate, separated from other goods. Step 5. Order a marking code in the Electronic Mark system. Label the shoes. Step 6. Now the shoes may be offered for sale.

The system of goods labelling with unified control marks (UCM) ensures compliance with UCM labelling regulations:

• Issuing of UCMs
• Recording of UCM circulation stages (distribution, return, transfer, discarding, etc.)
• Other functions and services provided for by regulations and agreements with system users and authorised bodies
