Police Bike Register SE

Swedish police bike registration and theft reporting system.

Founded: 2015Focus: Sweden

Pros

  • Official police system
  • Free registration
  • Trusted database

Cons

  • Not bike-focused UX
  • Limited features
  • Sweden only

The Swedish Police Authority integrated bike registration into the Polisen app in 2015, allowing cyclists to store their bike's serial number and description in a database searchable during police checks or theft investigations. Millions of Swedes already use the Polisen app for crime reporting.

The system relies on serial numbers rather than QR labels, limiting its effectiveness for bikes with removed or altered serial numbers — a common tactic among thieves. BikeGuard combines QR sticker identification with serial number records, and its database is accessible to law enforcement across Europe.
