* ''[[The Big O]]''. [[Mind Screw|It gets kinda hard to tell]].

* They're standard on one specific moon in ''[[Cowboy Bebop]]''.

* The eponymous [[Nora]] has one - inside an inverted pentagram, no less - to indicate that he's a member of the Dark Liege's Army. Interestingly, the DLA is actually the <s> good</s> less-bad of the two demon factions.

* "Barcode Kougaiji" in ''[[Saiyuki]]'' after he's reprogrammed by Goukumen and Nii.

* [[Wild ARMs]] : Twilight Venom - Sheyenne Rainstorm has one on the sole of his right foot. (It's not, strictly speaking, ''his'' right foot, though....)

* ''[[Yu-Gi-Oh! 5D's]]'': Criminals in Neo Domino City—including [[The Hero]], natch—are marked with barcode tattoos so they can be tracked after they're released from prison. Marked criminals become societal outcasts, with no choice but to live in the Satellite (if they weren't originally from there already, which is highly likely).

 

* Parodied in the [[Affectionate Parody]] fanfic of ''[[Hitman]] 2'', ''[[Hitman Miami]]''. In one of the missions, 47's barcode will set off an alarm as he leaves a supermarket, subjecting him to a [[Nonstandard Game Over|traumatizing cavity search]]; to avoid this, he can rub his head across a cashier's barcode scanner, which then displays "GNTCLY ENGNRD CLONE: $12.32".
