Goals
Recommendation 20 Provides three character alphabetic and alphanumeric codes for representing units of measurement for length, area, volume/capacity, mass (weight), time, and other quantities used in international trade. The codes are intended for use in manual and/or automated systems for the exchange of information between participants in international trade.
Facilitates use of Recommendation 20. The code list is presented in three separate annexes:
Annex I – Code elements listed by quantity category; Annex II – Code elements listed by unit of measure name; and Annex III – Code elements listed by common code.
