The Dual frequency HF-UHF identification device comprises a RFID integrated circuit with a power supply having a HF part, formed by a HF rectifier connected to a HF antenna, and a UHF part formed by a UHF rectifier connected to a UHF antenna. The RFID integrated circuit comprises a storage capacitor common to the HF and UHF parts of the power supply. The HF rectifier output and the UHF rectifier output are both continuously connected to the supply terminal of the common storage capacitor. Further, the supply terminal of the common storage capacitor is connected, on the one hand, to the output of the HF rectifier through a diode arranged so as to block a current from said supply terminal to the HF rectifier output and, on the other hand, directly to the output of the UHF rectifier formed by a charge pump.
