Is the serial number on the AirPod differ for each one? For example, if 3 Airpods were mixed up, would the serial number from the receipt identify which one is mine?

Hi alimuss,

Thank you for posting in the Apple Support Communities. I see you have a question about AirPod serial numbers.

The individual left and right AirPods don't have a serial number, but you can find the serial number under the lid of your charging case. You could then compare this to the serial number on the original receipt as you mentioned. Here's more, found in the article titled Learn more about your AirPods with charging case :

Find the serial number

The serial number of your case is on the underside of the lid.

If your AirPods are connected to your iOS device, you can also go to Settings > General > About > AirPods for the serial number.

If you don't have your charging case, but you have the original packaging, find the serial number by the barcode. You can also find the serial number on the original product receipt or invoice.


I hope this answers your question. Enjoy the rest of your day.
