It should be noted that tautomers share standard an InChI and standard InChIKey in common.

One FAQ by the InChI trust (though by 2012-05-12) explains this by
«different tautomers have the same connectivity/hydrogen layer»[1]
With the current version of InChI executables (1.06, December 2020), it is possible e.g., to add what InChI defines as «Fixed H layer», which offers to discern the tautomers. However, currently this is may yield a non-standard InChI (i.e., the string does not start with InChI=1S/, but InChI=1/). Thus, their use in a search in databases[2] may refer to more than one chemical entity.
