About the service
Report My Loss allows the public to easily record lost property online, immediately reporting the loss nationally to the police via the NMPR (National Mobile Property Register). Developed through consultation with law enforcement representatives, Report My Loss meets all necessary standards for reporting and security.
With the Report My Loss service, the public no longer need to phone or visit their local police department, a task that would ordinarily take up valuable police time and resources, not to mention the inconvenience to the person who has already lost something.
How does Report My Loss benefit the police?
When a member of the public fills in the detailed online lost property form, the information is placed on the NMPR, which is accessible by the police nationally.
Additionally, the fact that an item is declared as lost is also shared with CheckMEND – the consumer electronic background reporting service, preventing items that are not in possession of their rightful owners from being traded to honest retailers or other members of the public.
Recovery of Lost Property
When property is recovered by the police, a quick search of the NMPR can ascertain if the item is reported as lost, potentially avoiding the costly storage of found property and its subsequent disposal.
By directing the public to the Report My Loss website, the police can save financial and human resources.
