Should your caravan be stolen, please do the following:
• Contact the police and inform your insurance company. Inform them
of any anti-theft devices that may be mounted in your caravan.
• Inform CRiS and continue to keep CRiS informed of all further
developments so that their database can be kept up-to-date.
- Never leave the CRiS registration document in your
caravan; always take it with you, especially when
you travel abroad. The CRiS Caravan Registration
Form is evidence that you are the registered holder
and therefore entitled to use the caravan.
- Never remove any identifying marks on your cara-
van, because only with the aid of these identifying
marks is it possible to identify the caravan should it
be stolen.
Please note any possible separate information from the
registration authority.
