A tag unit comprises two RFID tags arranged nearly parallel with each
other, each RFID tag including an antenna, tag transmission/reception
section, and storage section. The tag unit stores different serial
numbers in the respective storage sections. A tag unit reading/writing
apparatus writes the different serial numbers and common data in the
storage sections of the respective RFID tags, and retains the same serial
numbers of the respective RFID tags in its storage section 18. The tag
unit reading/writing apparatus judges validity of reading and reusability
of the tag unit, when it successfully reads both of the serial numbers
and the data stored in the storage sections of the respective RFID tags.
