Common questions

Can I check if a second-hand item is stolen?

Yes. Enter the serial number, IMEI, or IR Tag code. If the owner has reported it stolen or missing, you will see a red warning. If there is no record, ask the seller for a receipt or ItemRecover Passport before buying.

What can I search for?

Serial number, IMEI (phones), VIN (vehicles), IR Tag code (the code on the QR sticker), or Passport number (e.g. IR-000042). All searches are free and require no account.

I found a lost item. How do I contact the owner?

Search for the item using its IR Tag code or serial number. If it is registered and reported missing, a contact form appears directly on this page. Your message goes to the owner and their contact details are never shown to you.

Is my search private?

Yes. We do not store search queries tied to identities. Searching is anonymous. We are GDPR-compliant and based in Denmark.

How do I report my own item as missing or stolen?

Log in, open the Passport for the item, and click "Report as missing". Add a last-known location, contact preference, and optional finder reward. The item immediately appears in this registry. Creating a Passport is free.

Does "not found" mean the item is definitely not stolen?

No. "Not found" means the item is not in our database. Either the owner hasn't registered it, or they haven't reported it missing. We can only confirm status for actively registered items. For high-value purchases, always ask for a receipt.
