Abstract: A transport container having a receptacle for holding an electronic, wireless identification device in the form of a smart card. The transport container has a double-walled wall section formed by an inner wall and an outer all. The receptacle is defined by guides and ribs and an insertion slot is provided in the outer wall via which the card is inserted into the receptacle. The insertion slot is offset to the receptacle, so that the smart card or elements of the receptacle must be elastically deformable to insert the card into the receptacle. The ribs and guides ensure that the card is reliably held in the receptacle. The ribs also ensure that the card is held at least 1.5 mm away from the inner and outer walls, thereby preventing buildup of a moisture film on the smart card, to avoid impairment of the ability to read the card.
