What other travellers advise
What other travellers advise
- Lost passport: report to the police first. Embassy guidance puts a police report as step one, and it is usually required for the replacement. Ask for the original written copy.
- Leave buffer before your flight home. Getting a replacement can take days, so you may need to change your flight. Check your insurance for rebooking cover and tell the airline early.
- Then contact your embassy about an emergency travel document. Expect to bring the police report, passport photos, proof of onward travel, and ID evidence. Embassies often limit out-of-hours service to genuine emergencies.
