Various Police forces also do cycle marking for free, worth checking the website of your local force. This isn't UV ink but a unique number that is etched into the frame (they've different etches for different frame materials, I've had both steel and carbon fibre frames done).

- gadders 14y agoAlways used to be postcodes stamped on an unobstrusive bit of the frame when I was a kid (a looooong time ago).
- alexfoo 14y agoYup, I had the same on my bike of 25 years ago! Not easily transferred though if you wanted to sell the bike to someone else. The unique number etched into the frame can be transferred though. The one you get free from the UK Police is the same as the Silver Kit here: https://www.bikeregister.com/ https://www.bikeregister.com/
