Operation Identification

Operation Identification (Operation ID) is a program in which citizens may permanently mark their valuables with an identification number, generally a Texas Driver’s License number.

The Program involves four steps: 1) Property is engraved. 2) Inventory list of property is prepared. 3) A registration card is recorded by the Dallas Police Department. 4) Operation ID decals are placed on your doors and windows.

The program is designed to: • Discourage the activities of burglars and thieves by marking your possessions and placing decals on your windows. • Aid in the return of found or recovered stolen property to the owner. • Prevent burglars from fencing stolen property. • Assist in apprehending and convicting criminals caught with marked property.
