Lost South Korean passport in Greece

What to do

  1. 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.
  2. 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.
  3. 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

  • 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.
