FAQ\u00a0 <\/a>TSA Lost & Found<\/span><\/h2>\n

How do I file a claim for a missing or damaged item?<\/strong><\/span><\/h3>\n
\n
\n
\n
\n
\n

You may\u00a0file a claim<\/a> if you are injured or your property is lost or damaged during the screening process. Screening at certain airports is performed by private companies and not TSA.<\/span><\/p>\n

What happens if an ID is left behind at a checkpoint?<\/strong><\/span><\/h3>\n
\n
\n
\n
\n
\n

TSA works with the airport to reunite passengers with all lost or unclaimed personal property, including personal identification items such as drivers\u2019 licenses and passports, left behind at a checkpoint. If the ID is not claimed within 30 days, it is destroyed.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

What is the status of my claim?<\/strong><\/span><\/h3>\n
\n
\n
\n
\n
\n

Please allow up to six months to fully investigate your claim. Claims that require investigation by law enforcement require additional processing time.<\/span><\/p>\n

All claims are investigated thoroughly and the final decision to approve a claim rests with TSA. If your claim is approved, you will receive a lette<\/a>r and form to complete regarding settlement agreement and\/or payment methods. You can\u00a0check the status<\/a>\u00a0of your claim at any time.<\/span><\/p>\n

\n
\n
\n
\n
\n

Money from the sale of all lost and found items goes to the U.S. Department of the Treasury and into a general fund used to pay towards the U.S. national debt.<\/span><\/p>\n

What happens to items left at security checkpoints? Is there a process?<\/strong><\/span><\/h3>\n
\n
\n
\n
\n
\n

TSA makes every effort to reunite passengers with items left behind at the airport checkpoint<\/a>. Lost and found items retained by TSA for a minimum of thirty (30) days, and if not claimed, are either destroyed, turned over to a state agency for surplus property, or sold by TSA as excess property. The state may dispose of the items through sales, destruction, donations or charities. The state keeps any money from sales, not TSA. At a number of locations, lost and found items are turned over to the airport at the end of each day.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/article>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

How many lost and found items are found by TSA annually?<\/strong><\/span><\/h3>\n
