ISIN The International Standards Organisation (ISO) has provided a standard (ISO 6166) for the numbering of securities. This standard is intended for use in any application in the trading and administration of securities.

The international securities identification number (ISIN) is a code which uniquely identifies a specific securities' issue. The ISIN consists of:

  • a prefix which is a 2-character alpha country code.  (e.g. AU for Australia)
  • a 9-character code which identifies the security. (e.g. NSX Trading Symbol padded with leading zeros)
  • a check character computed using the modulus 10 formula "Double-Add-Double" formula.
