GS1 Digital Link standard Archive

First published in August 2018, GS1 Digital Link enables consistent representation of GS1 identification keys within Web addresses to link to online information and services. The original 'all in one' standard has now been superseded by separate standards that are all linked below. The term 'GS1 Digital Link' itself now refers specifically to the GS1 Digital Link URI syntax standard.

The latest version (currently version 1.1.4) is always available at https://ref.gs1.org/standards/digital-link/. Permanent links to specific versions are listed below.
