Abstract
A portable container, such as a suitcase, trunk, case, trolley, and the like, including an outer shell for delimiting at least one compartment for accommodating personal items, instruments, tools, objects in general, and at least one electronic tag configured to store data of various kinds and/or transmit them via a contactless information transmission technology, such as RFID, NFC and similar technologies. The container includes a supporting plate which is anchored permanently to an external surface region of the shell; an at least partially transparent plaque is arranged on a first face of the plate, on the opposite side with respect to the surface region, by interlocking in a parallel and detachable manner, for the definition of a pocket configured to receive identification elements, such as tags, cards or the like.
