FBI National Stolen Art File

The National Stolen Art File (NSAF) is a database of stolen art and cultural property. Law enforcement agencies across the world submit stolen objects for inclusion. When an object is recovered, it is removed from the database. However, not all recoveries are reported to the NSAF. If you have information on a work of art in the NSAF, please report it to tips.fbi.gov.
