EPCIS Ver 1.0 (Electronic Product Code Information Services)
This document is an EPCglobal normative specification that defines Version 1.0 of EPC Information Services (EPCIS). The goal of EPCIS is to enable disparate applications to leverage Electronic Product Code (EPC) data via EPC-related data sharing, both within and across enterprises. Ultimately, this sharing is aimed at enabling participants in the EPCglobal Network to gain a shared view of the disposition of EPC-bearing objects within a relevant business context.
This Version 1.0 specification is intended to provide a basic capability that meets the above goal. In particular, this specification is designed to meet the requirements of a basic set of use cases that the user community has identified as a minimal useful set. Other use cases and capabilities are expected to be addressed through follow-on versions of this specification, and companion specifications.

LLRP Ver 1.0 (Low Level Reader Protocol)
This document specifies an interface between RFID Readers and Clients. The design of this interface recognises that in some RFID systems, there is a requirement for explicit knowledge of RFID air protocols and the ability to control Readers that implement RFID air protocol communications. It also recognizes that coupling control to the physical layers of an RFID infrastructure may be useful for the purpose of mitigating RFID interference. The interface described herein, and the functionality it implies, is called "Low Level Reader Protocol", or LLRP.

Drug Pedigree Messaging Standard Ver 1.0
This document and its associated attachments specify architecture for the maintenance and exchange of electronic pedigree documents for use by pharmaceutical supply chain participants. The architecture is targeted for use in complying with document-based pedigree laws. The standard may be properly applied anywhere that an open document model is specified or implied in the pedigree regulations.

EPC Tag Data Standards
This standard defines how the data is constructed in the RFID tag
,
how it is encoded on the tag and how it is decoded for use in the information systems layers of the EPC Systems Network. It currently includes
EPC
encodings for:
- GTIN
- the GS1 Global Trade Item Number (here, a serialised version)
- SSCC
- the GS1 Serial Shipping Container Code
- GLN
- the GS1 Global Location Number
- GRAI - the GS1 Global Returnable Asset Identifier
- GIAI - the GS1 Global Individual Asset Identifier
- GID - General Identifier
- US DoD - US DoD number constructs

EPC Tag Data Translation Standard
EPC Tag Data Translation (TDT) specification is describes the ways to interpret machine-readable tag data. This standards contains details of the structure and elements of the machine readable markup files and provides guidance on how it validate it using a software system tag data translation Ver 1.1 is fully compatible with the tag data standard 1.2.7.

Class 1 Generation 2 UHF Air Interface Protocol Standard
Referred to as "Gen 2" EPC Standard, this is an EPCglobal Air Interface Standard for passive UHF (Frequency range between 865 to 960 UHF) that defines the physical and logical requirements for a passive-backscatter, Interrogator Talks First (ITF), Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) system. Gen 2 EPCglobal Air Interface Standards has recently been ratified as an approved ISO 18006 Part C Standard.

Application Level Events (ALE) Standard
Application Level Events (ALE) specify how the RFID tag data captured by the RFID systems is filtered and logically grouped into a business event. This is an EPCglobal software standard previously known as Savant for filtering and data processing. This standard applies to what is known as EPC/RFID middleware.
