What to do
- Report it at the nearest police station or call the Tourist Police on 1571. Ask for the written police report — your embassy will need it.
- Contact your embassy or consulate (below) for an emergency travel document. Usually needed: the police report, passport photos, proof of identity and proof of onward travel.
- Found later? A found passport is normally handed to the police. Tell them and your embassy you reported it lost — a passport reported lost is usually cancelled.

Tips
- Contact the nearest Government of Canada office as soon as possible; not every office issues emergency documents
- Lost/stolen replacement passport adds a CAD 45 fee; declaration form PPTC 203 is required
- A photo or copy of your old passport, and any other photo ID, makes the embassy step much faster.
- Tell your airline and hotel. An emergency document is usually valid for one trip home. Check before you book extra stops.
- If your wallet went too, block your cards first, then sort out the passport.
