Abstract: An RFID tag (100) that is foldable about a generally transverse fold line (101). The line (101) divides the tag (100) into regions 1 and 2. The region 1 has an RFID integrated circuit (104) and areas (105) of electrically conductive material. The region 2 has conductive areas (107) that provide an efficient RFID antenna. In a folded configuration the areas (107) are operatively associated with the integrated circuit (104) while in the open configuration the areas (107) are not functionally associated with the integrated circuit (104). Accordingly in the open configuration the tag (100) is disabled or its RFID performance substantially degraded. The tag (100) can be reversibly altered between the open and folded configurations.
