Yes, that system in also in place in Eindhoven and enforced heavily at the station.
If they suspect that your bike has been abandoned it gets a sticker on the frame warning you when it will be removed at a certain date.
If it isnt abandoned you can just remove the sticker and that will be the sign that it’s still owned and used. Otherwise it gets taken to a depot, and sold after a grace period of (I believe) a year.
At my university, from time to time, the administration attached notes at the bikes, marking them for being removed until a specified date.
