It is described a transponder tagged object, comprising: a conductive structure (103, 105, 403, 405); an insulating region (109, 409) galvanically isolating a first portion (103, 403) of the conductive structure from a second portion (105, 405) of the conductive structure; and a transponder tag (111, 411, 611) comprising a first antenna pad (133, 333) and a second antenna pad (135, 335), wherein the transponder tag is fixed at the object such that the first portion of the conductive structure in particular capacitively couples to the first antenna pad and such that the second portion of the conductive structure in particular capacitively couples to the second antenna pad. Further, a method for manufacturing a transponder tagged object is described.
