Repatriation & Legal Process
It's essential to note that the discovery of a stolen vehicle doesn't automatically guarantee immediate return to the rightful owner. The resolution of such situations depends on the local legislation of the country where the vehicle is found. Vehicles may remain confiscated, be connected to ongoing criminal activities, or become part of ongoing police investigations. We handle the litigation of custody, proving the rightful owner and the process to recover the vehicle from one country to another.
GPS Trackers & Alarms
We supply and fit GPS Trackers and Alarms to all vehicles, if your vehicle is stolen and is to be returned to you, we can return it with a GPS Tracker installed and an alarm system fitted, this is essential as it is common vehicles are re-stolen. Due to inadequate security measures, many vehicles are vulnerable to theft. Factory-installed alarm systems are often susceptible to hacking by criminal organizations.
Aftercare of Recovered Stolen Vehicles
Stolen cars require a detailed inspection once they are recovered, this covers how many keys are coded, replacement of keys, locks, clearing of fault codes, re-coding new keys and a total inspection to ensure the vehicle can be repaired to a pre-stolen state and can be re-sold.
International Stolen Vehicle Recovery
If your vehicle / car is stolen you need to report the theft immediately to the nearest police station and then phone Digitpol to assist in the search. As soon as the theft is reported to the police, the Police issues an International warrant based on the VIN and License plate. The vehicle is then wanted internationally and on the Interpol SMV database. Stolen Vehicle Investigation consists of tracing and locating stolen vehicles and the recovery consists of the repatriation of discovered stolen vehicles to its rightful owner.
