The IMEI number is unique and used by a GSM network to identify valid devices and therefore can be used for stopping a stolen phone from accessing that network.
For example, if a mobile phone is stolen, the owner can call their network provider and instruct them to blacklist the phone using its IMEI number.

Steps for Sealed Mobile devicesClick to ExpandAll Samsung products will have the Model Number and Serial number on the device itself somewhere, usually it's on the back closer to the bottom. Sometimes it's hard to read because of the colour of the product, and the text can be small on phones, tablets and wearables. If it's too hard to read on the product itself - check the box the device came in, as the Serial Number will be there too. In India, if you buy a phone or tablet that takes a SIM, it is required by law to put the IMEI on the sale receipt.

I have a Samsung Galaxy Tab 2.0 (7')
On the back of this device is a serial number of the format
RF3C6000MNA
When I go into settings on my device, and choose About Device->Status->Serial Number, this number also appears.
I can't, however, find a way of extracting this number programmatically.
I've seen loads of articles about extracting the serial number, but this returns a completely different number. (using android.os.Build.SERIAL)
I've already extracted the IMEI, and MAC address, so I don't need code for this.

Edit: it's been a while since this answer, here's a couple of updated points:
- The OP asked about Galaxy Tab 2 and for that indeed the answer was
ril.serialnumber(even for the non-3G model - see this gist). According to Himanshu's answer Galaxy Tab 3 usessys.serialnumber(also backed by this answer).sys.serialnumbermakes better sense for tablets asril.*stands for Radio Interface Layer, something most tablets are not equipped with (ril.serialnumber, respectively, makes better sense for phones). - There is no standard API for getting the device serial number (ie the serial number on the packaging - not to be confused with
Settings.Secure.ANDROID_IDor the various other 'unique' identifiers scattered throughout the API). This means it is up to the manufacturer to decide where to store the device serial (if at all). On the S3 Mini it'sril.serialnumber, on NexusOne it'sro.serialno(gist), on Galaxy Tab 2 it'sril.serialnumber, on Galaxy Tab 3/4 it'ssys.serialnumber, on Lenovo Tab it's none of the above. These settings appear to be the usual suspects, when looking for the device serial, but shouldn't be taken for granted, and as such, shouldn't be relied on for tracking unique app installations.
You can use the getprop command on the adb shell and check yourself that which of the files contains the correct serial number. Many times the serial number is located in different files and a code has to be device specific.
For samung Tab 3 you can use the following code:
TLamaWe use the Build class for our product. See if this matches: http://developer.android.com/reference/android/os/Build.html#SERIAL
