Assign AI (423) to encode the ISO country code(s) of the country or countries of initial processing of the trade item. The country of initial processing is normally the country in which the trade item has been produced or manufactured. However, in certain applications such as livestock fattening, there may be up to five different countries involved in the initial processing. It is the responsibility of the supplier to allocate the correct country code(s). The country of origin is coded according to the three-digit ISO 3166 standards.

AI(423) must always be used in conjunction with AI(01) - Global Trade Item Number (GTIN), or with the combined AI(02) - GTIN of Trade Items Contained in a Logistic Unit and AI(37) - Count of Trade Items Contained in a Logistic Unit. AI(423) must not be used in conjunction with AI(426) - Country Covering Full Process Chain on the same item at the same time.
