Hi Ramy,

Thanks for visiting my Paris website, and congratulations on your marriage.

What a shame you left your camera on the bus in Paris.

The first thing to do immediately you lose something on a bus is to contact the bus company.

If you lost your camera almost a month ago, it’s unlikely that you will ever get it back.

You can still try by contacting the Department of Lost and Found in Paris:

The Department of Lost and Found Police Headquarters,
36 rue des Morillons,
75015 Paris
Metro: Convention.
Tel: 0.821.00.25.25

Open from Monday to Thursday from 8:30 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. and Friday from 8:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m.

This group is responsible for collecting items gathered in Paris, in the three surburb departments and the Roissy and Orly airports.

Each day, 600-700 lost items end up in this service which have been gathered from from individuals, the RATP, department stores, museums, taxis and other departments of the inner suburbs (92, 93 and 94).

Before going to the Lost and Found Department, try to remember the exact location of the loss and try to get there.

If you have lost something in the street within five days, contact the nearest police station.

If you’ve lost something in the metro or bus within 24 hours, ask at the metro station.

If you have lost something in a taxi, try to call the taxi (by finding the phone and identification number of the taxi on the bill).

Another option is to try to contact “les objets trouvés” in Paris

email: servicedesobjetstrouves-paris@interieur.gouv.fr
Tél. 01 55 76 20 20 or 08 21 00 25 25
36, rue des Morillons

Best of luck, and Season’s Greetings!
