Okoban – The Global Lost & Found System

An Okoban tag is a small label or identifier featuring a unique Okoban UID code. This code can be attached to luggage, backpacks, electronics, or personal belongings to help identify them if they are lost.

Unlike traditional luggage tags, an Okoban tracking tag does not display personal information. Instead, the UID links securely to your registered contact details within the Okoban system. If someone finds your item, they can enter the UID online, and the system will notify you directly.

Okoban tags are used worldwide by travellers, airlines, airports, and Lost & Found offices, making them a reliable solution for protecting valuable items while travelling.

Using Okoban offers a simple, reliable way to protect your belongings while travelling. Here are some select benefits of using Okoban while on your travels:

• Free protection for life

Once your Okoban tag is registered, your item is protected permanently at no cost, giving you long-term peace of mind every time you travel.

• Global Lost & Found coverage

Okoban is used in thousands of airport Lost & Found offices worldwide, helping reunite travellers with their belongings across countries and borders.

• Improved chances of recovery

Registering an Okoban UID significantly increases the likelihood of lost luggage or items being returned, compared to untagged belongings.

• Privacy-focused tracking

Your personal details are never displayed on the tag itself. All contact information is stored securely and only used to reconnect you if your item is found.

• Instant alerts when items are found

If someone enters your Okoban UID, you’ll be notified by SMS and/or email with information on where your item has been located and how to contact the finder.

Together, these benefits make Okoban a trusted Lost & Found solution for travellers who want more reassurance that their belongings can be identified, tracked, and returned if they go missing.

What do I do if I find an Okoban-tagged item?

If you find an item with an Okoban tag, simply visit the Okoban website and enter the unique UID code shown on the tag. You don’t need to create an account or share your personal details. Once the code is entered, the system will notify the item’s owner so they can contact you and arrange its return.

Can I register more than one Okoban tag to the same account?

Yes. You can register multiple Okoban tags under a single account, making it easy to manage and protect several items at once. This is especially useful if you travel with more than one bag or want to tag multiple personal belongings.

What happens if I change my contact details after registering?

You can update your contact details at any time by logging into your Okoban account. Keeping your information up to date ensures you can be reached quickly if one of your registered items is found.

Do I need an internet connection for Okoban to work?

Only the person who finds the item needs internet access to enter the Okoban UID code online. Once the code is submitted, the system takes care of notifying the registered owner automatically.
