Frequently asked questions

What should a missing child poster include?

A clear, recent photo, the full name, age, height, weight, hair and eye color, what they were last wearing, where and when they were last seen, and a phone number to call. Always tell people to call 911 or local police first.

Should I contact the police before making a poster?

Yes. Report the person missing to local police right away — there is no waiting period in the US. Add the police case number and their phone number to the poster so tips go to investigators.

Can I add more than one photo?

Yes. Add up to 3 photos (for example a recent face photo, a full-body photo and the clothing they wore) plus an optional logo for a search group or agency. Empty photo frames disappear automatically.

Is this poster template free?

Yes, 100% free with no sign-up and no watermark. Download a print-ready PDF, a PNG image for sharing on phones and social media, or print directly.
