Barcodes follow their own standards, Google "bar code types" or look at the wikipedia entry. Countries tend to not have set standards, different organizations, depending on how large and diverse their inventory is, use different barcode types.

Whats the meaning behind a bar code tattoo?

It means: "this person is just a product" When i put such tattoo on my skin, I'm telling the word that I'm just a box, or a can came out of a production line :) The use of the barcode as a tattoo design is meant to be ironical, a warning that if we are not careful as a culture, we are all in danger of becoming products ourselves. A barcode tattoo is also a protest against a culture where it seems that everyone wears the same clothes, listens to the same music and uses the same products. A barcode tattoo is a statement against a culture of commodities and a celebration of diversity and the uniqueness of the individual. Lots of punk music enthusiasts embraced the barcode tattoo,every one is a product,you sale your time in order to get money or other reward, you die you become recyclable just like a product, you breed you create other products could be good or bad............but remember what is not a product is your soul and spirit their not material.
