How long is a found item kept?

Updated this week

Many different organizations use the iLost platform, and each organization is responsible for storing found items in accordance with their local rules and regulations.

The retention period for found property therefore fully depends on:

  • the organization that found the item, and

  • the local legislation in the country where the item was found.

Because retention periods can vary significantly from one country or organization to another, iLost cannot provide one universal storage timeframe.

If you have a specific question about how long your item will be kept, we kindly recommend contacting the customer service or Lost & Found team of the organization that found your item directly.
