How Do You Report A Stolen Passport?
Although there are several steps that must be taken to report a lost or stolen passport, they aren’t difficult to replace if you can provide adequate proof of citizenship. Report your lost or stolen passport to local authorities, and obtain a copy of the report. A copy may be necessary to obtain a replacement. Find the nearest U.S. consulate or embassy. An embassy or consular officer will be able to help. Be prepared to provide proof of U.S. citizenship. A copy of a birth certificate or state-issued driver’s license is usually adequate. Once you’ve filled out the required forms and provide sufficient proof of citizenship, your lost or stolen passport will probably be replaced within twenty-four hours.
