IEC 62507-1:2010

Identification systems enabling unambiguous information interchange - Requirements - Part 1: Principles and methods

IEC 62507-1:2010 specifies basic requirements for systems for the identification of objects (such as products, "items", documents, etc., excluding human individuals). It focuses on assigning identifiers to an object for referencing purposes. It includes recommendations for the human readable presentation of identifiers and its machine readable representation, to be considered when constructing the identifiers and identification numbers and also requirements for the application of identifiers in a computer sensible form in accordance with such systems, and requirements for their interchange.
It has the status of a horizontal standard in accordance with IEC Guide 108.

To comply with a standard, you need to quickly understand its issues in order to determine its impact on your activity.

The Requirements department helps you quickly locate within the normative text:

• mandatory clauses to satisfy,
• non-essential but useful clauses to know, such as permissions and recommendations.

The identification of these types of clauses is based on the document "ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2 - Principles and rules of structure and drafting of ISO documents" as well as on a constantly enriched list of verbal forms.
