Report Lost or Found Items
- Have you lost something? Or have you found something? Then you can report this to the municipality. You do not need to file a report with the police.
- Please note: you DO need to file a report with the police if you suspect theft.
- You can only report lost and found items from the municipality of Voorschoten.
You can report or register lost or found items with us. Registration is mandatory for certain lost items for insurance purposes. Have you found an item and would you ultimately like to become the owner of it? In that case too, you must register the item.
For other found or lost items, a report is sufficient.
Following your report or registration, we will investigate whether your item has been found. Your lost item may be in our custody or with the finder. We will let you know as soon as possible.
