VERIFY THE AUTHENTICITY OF TRAVEL DOCUMENTS
Bearing in mind that terrorists and other serious criminals often use false documents to
travel, in 2002 Interpol created and launched its database on Stolen and Lost Travel
Documents (SLTD). This database, which is also available to all of INTERPOL’s
member countries through the I-24/7 system, currently contains more than 15.5 million
documents reported by more than 120 countries. However, in many countries, this
information may only available at the INTERPOL national focal point, or NCB.
