NO: Product codes in Norway

NTIN presented as EAN13, is presently the dominant product code in use in Norway. The NTIN is constructed from the Vnr and consequently a non-changeable unit. GTIN comply with the same 13 digit format as NTIN, EAN13. The GS1_Healthcare_GTIN_Allocation_Rules_16092016 is available at https://wiki.vnr.fi/
