Stolen ipad

The Serial Number or IMEI number are not helpful when it comes to tracking a stolen iPad.

The requirement is to have Find My set to ON, on that iPad, before it was stolen. If you did then follow the instructions in this guide published by Apple 👉 If your iPad is lost or stolen.

Here is Apple’s advice for lost or stolen devices:

If your iPhone, iPad or iPod touch is lost or stolen – Apple Support

Use the Find My app to locate a lost or stolen device – Apple Support

If the Find My iPad feature was enabled prior to it being “misplaced”, then if active, you would stand a good chance of locating it. 

However, if the feature was not activated prior to being misplaced - or the iPad has been inactive for more than 24 hours, the last known location will not be available - and the opportunity to use technical means to recover the iPad have been lost.

You are welcome and sorry about the loss of your iPad.
