Yes, they are standard, within a few parameters.
There are two classes of bar code you need to look at: Those for Consumer Units and those for Traded Units. They use different barcode types to prevent misreads.

Consumer Units are items which are sold to the customer directly - a tube of toothpaste, a case of beer.
Traded Units are groups of items which are sold to retailers, not to customers - a carton of tubes of toothpaste, a pallet of cases of beer.

Each Unit has it's own barcode number (called an Article Number): the code for a tube of Tesco toothpaste (30g) would be different from that for a tube of Tesco toothpaste (50g) or a carton of tubes of Tesco toothpaste (30g), and this number is unique worldwide. Each country has it's own Article Number issuing authority who come down on you like a ton of bricks if you start using them willy-nilly.

Consumer units generally use EAN8, EAN-12 or EAN-14 (now known as GTIN codes).
Traded units generally use ITF14.

Mostly, scanners to read Consumer units are set to not-recognise ITF Traded unit codes, and vice versa.
Real men don't use instructions. They are only the manufacturers opinion on how to put the thing together.
