    Abstract: The invention relates to a bag (3) having a filling space for bulk material, which filling space is delimited by a lower base (4), a circumferential wall (6), and an upper filling space closure (8) facing away from the lower base (4). The bag has at least one tear-open strip (10) for exposing an opening area (12) of the bag (2), which is delimited by an upper weakening line (14) and a lower weakening line (16), wherein both weakening lines (14, 16) extent parallel to the upper filling space closure (8), and the upper weakening line (14) is positioned between the upper filling space closure (8) and the lower weakening line (16). The bag (2) has a longitudinal seam (18) extending transversely with respect to the upper filling space closure (8). The upper and the lower weakening line (14, 16) begin in the area of the longitudinal seam (18).
