Description (English):

This document specifies the procedural requirements to maintain specific RFID data constructs. The data constructs are associated with managing open and closed applications that utilise RFID systems which conform to the data protocol defined in other parts of ISO/IEC 15961 and ISO/IEC 15962, and the air interface protocols of ISO/IEC 18000. It also outlines the obligations of the Registration Authority and the application administrators, with respect to: — the allocation of AFIs to particular applications defined by the application administrator; — the allocation of data formats to particular applications defined by the application administrator; — the registration of Root-OIDs, compliant with ISO/IEC 9834-1, to any Unique Item Identifiers used in applications defined by the application administrator; — the registration of Root-OIDs, compliant with ISO/IEC 9834-1, to any other data used in applications defined by the application administrator; — the registration of various table-driven encoding schemes, compliant with ISO/IEC 15962.

Abstract

Overview

ISO/IEC 15961-2:2019 defines the registration procedures for RFID data constructs used in item management. It specifies how a Registration Authority (RA) and application administrators must manage assignments such as Application Family Identifiers (AFIs), data formats, Root-OIDs/Relative-OIDs for Unique Item Identifiers (UIIs) and other data, and table-driven encoding schemes (per ISO/IEC 15962). The standard ensures consistent, interoperable encoding of RFID data across systems that use the ISO/IEC 15961 data protocol together with air-interface protocols in ISO/IEC 18000.

Key topics and requirements

Scope & purpose: Procedural requirements to maintain RFID data constructs for open and closed applications using the ISO/IEC 15961/15962 data protocol.
Registration roles: Obligations and responsibilities of the Registration Authority and application administrators.
Assignments covered:
- Allocation of AFIs to applications.
- Allocation of data formats to applications.
- Registration of Root-OIDs (ISO/IEC 9834-1 compliant) to UIIs and other application data.
- Registration of table-driven encoding schemes compliant with ISO/IEC 15962.
Application process:
- Standardized application forms, one submission per data-construct set.
- Applications must include required elements per ISO/IEC 15961-3.
- RA reviews, may request clarifications, retains copies of all applications.
Approval / rejection criteria:
- Approval requires identifiable authority over an open application, representation in two or more countries, and intent for near-term use (preferably within 12 months).
- Rejection reasons include non-open application, delayed use, ineligible applicant, or incomplete information.
Registry publication:
- RA maintains a public, free Register of RFID Data Constructs, published in English (alphabetical by application administrator).
- RA submits register updates to ISO/IEC JTC 1/SC 31 secretariat each January and July.

Applications and who uses it

Application administrators developing RFID application standards for supply chain, retail, logistics, asset tracking, returns management, and other item-management domains.
Registration Authorities responsible for assigning AFIs, OIDs, and data formats.
RFID manufacturers and system integrators implementing tag memory layouts and encoding that must interoperate across systems and geographies.
Standards bodies and solution architects ensuring compliance with ISO/IEC 15961/15962 and air-interface standards (ISO/IEC 18000).

Using ISO/IEC 15961-2:2019 helps organizations achieve consistent RFID data encoding, reduce interoperability issues, and support reliable long-term data exchange across RFID systems.
