Central Registry of Information on Looted Cultural Property

The Central Registry of Information on Looted Cultural Property is a dedicated database that records information about stolen or looted cultural artifacts. Its purpose is to help identify, recover, and prevent the sale of these items. By maintaining detailed records, it supports law enforcement, museums, and collectors in verifying the provenance of cultural objects. This registry promotes transparency and helps protect cultural heritage from illicit trafficking, ensuring that stolen items can be traced and returned to their rightful owners or communities.
