1. Scope

This part of ISO/IEC 15459 specifies the procedural requirements to maintain a non-significant, unique identifier for item management applications, and outlines the obligations of the Registration Authority and Issuing Agencies.

This part of ISO/IEC 15459 excludes those items where ISO has designated Maintenance Agencies or Registration Authorities to provide identification schemes. It does not apply to - freight containers, because their unique coding is specified in ISO 6346, Freight containers - Coding, identification and marking; - vehicles, because their unique identification is specified in ISO 3779, Road vehicles - Vehicle identification number (VIN) - Content and structure; - car radios, because their unique identification is specified in ISO 10486, Passenger cars - Car radio identification number (CRIN).

The exclusion also applies to ISO 2108, Information and documentation # International standard book number (ISBN) and ISO 3297, Information and documentation - International standard serial number (ISSN).

NOTE The scope of each of ISO 2108 and ISO 3297 identifies the title rather than the individual copy of a book or periodical. As such, the level of identification achieved is at a level higher than the unique identity required to be compliant with this part of ISO/IEC 15459
