Scope

JIS X 0510 specifies the Quick Response Code as a Japanese national standard. Its scope parallels that of ISO/IEC 18004: data characters, encoding modes, symbol structure, error-correction scheme, and reference decode algorithm.

Relationship to ISO/IEC 18004

JIS X 0510 was the basis upon which the Quick Response Code was submitted to ISO/IEC for international standardization. The two standards remain substantively aligned. JIS X 0510 continues to serve as the normative reference for Japanese domestic implementations.
