Identity tag



An identity tag was a miniature device introduced by Homeworld Security Command on Coruscant to increase security during the Clone Wars. Bail Organa of Alderaan was one of the many Senators forced to carry an identity tag.

Identity tags were just another draconian security measure introduced by Supreme Chancellor Palpatine as the risk of war on Coruscant grew more potent. Senators such as Bail Organa found these ID tags unneccessary and irritating; while attempting to board his consular vessel, Tantive IV, Bail was forced to show his identity tag to a dubious Senate Guard.
