JurisdictionVersionNumber

Mandatory on all AAMVA and Compact barcodes. Optional on Magnetic barcodes.

Jurisdiction Version Number: This is a decimal value between 0 and 99 that specifies the jurisdiction version level of the PDF417 barcode format. Notwithstanding iterations of this standard, jurisdictions implement incremental changes to their barcodes, including new jurisdiction-specific data, compression algorithms for digitized images, digital signatures, or new truncation conventions used for names and addresses. Each change to the barcode format within each AAMVA version (above) must be noted, beginning with Jurisdiction Version 00.
