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.
Emergency travel document (laissez-passer)
| Valid for | single trip to Cyprus or country of permanent residence |
|---|---|
| Bring | police report; application form; 2 photos; proof of identity |
EU citizens whose country has no embassy or consulate in a non-EU country can get an EU Emergency Travel Document from any other EU member state's embassy there, for a single journey home, valid for no more than 15 calendar days except in exceptional circumstances
Tips
- 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.
