Vehicle Owner Identification | Information on Registered Vehicle Holders

The experienced investigators of the Aaden Corporate Detective Agency Cologne will, on your behalf, trace the whereabouts of a vehicle after theft, arrange for its recovery, identify the registered owner of motor vehicles, or determine which vehicles are registered to a specific person: +49 221 9859 2399.

Reasons for Identifying a Vehicle Owner

A legitimate interest is required for identifying a vehicle owner. For example, merely wishing to get to know the driver of a vehicle is not sufficient — no matter how attractive they may be. In such cases, our detectives in Cologne would not be permitted to commence investigations, as the personal data of the vehicle owner (such as name, date of birth and address) are protected under constitutional personal rights and may only be disclosed by the Aaden Detective Agency Cologne if a legitimate interest exists.

The situation is different if damage has been caused by a third-party vehicle. This may involve damage to your own vehicle, or a case where the owner of another vehicle has, for example, damaged your garden fence or destroyed a flowerbed while manoeuvring. In such instances, a legitimate interest exists in obtaining the contact details of the person responsible for the damage. With the official licence plate number, our corporate detectives in Cologne can identify the vehicle owner at short notice. There are many other reasons to request vehicle owner data, including coercion in road traffic, verbal abuse or gestures, or a getaway vehicle following robbery or burglary. If required, consult our detectives in Cologne — we are happy to assist you: info@aaden-detektive.de.

Identification of Registered Vehicles for Enforcement Proceedings

Our Cologne detective team is not only able to determine the name, address and date of birth linked to a known licence plate, but can also provide a list of all vehicles registered to a specific person. This option is primarily used to establish whether and which vehicles may be seized in enforcement proceedings.
