?

GTIN‑8, UPC‑A (GTIN‑12), EAN‑13, and logistic GTIN‑14 all end with the same ISO/IEC GS1 modulus‑10 weight‑3 algorithm used by the barcode generator when it pads shortened bodies with a check digit. Alternate lengths map to retailer packaging standards (coupon GTIN‑12, carton GTIN‑14, compact GTIN‑8).

Result

Passes modulus‑10 GS1 rule for GTIN-13 (13 digits).
