Reporting multiple stolen valuables
If, for example, a bag has been stolen from you and several valuables have disappeared with it at the same time, it is not possible to report this via Suisse ePolice.
If several valuables are stolen, you must complete the form below. This is a form from the Basel-Stadt cantonal police. Apart from the fact that it is a different form, nothing will change for you. The crime scene must be in Basel, Riehen or Bettingen.
Please note that the loss of an ID or passport must always be reported in person at a police station.
