What should I do if I lose my passport for traveling abroad?

Step 1: You must report the loss to the local police station and issue a bill. Reminder: you can usually get a police officer's card on the same day.

If it is determined that your passport is lost, you should report it to the local police station or police station as soon as possible. In many tourist destination countries, this is a very important item in the daily process of the police station or immigration bureau, and usually the police station certificate can be obtained on the same day.

Step 2: reissue your passport or travel permit (it takes 4 working days to apply for a travel permit locally, and only 2 working days to expedite it, which is faster).

Method 1: reissue the passport locally, and the issuance time is 15 working days from the date of accepting the application, and the waiting time is longer.

Among them, the police station certificate is undoubtedly the simplest method. Materials to be carried: travel permit and its photocopy (photo page, entry stamp page), household registration book and its photocopy, ID card and its photocopy, original and photocopy of foreign alarm records, translation by a translation company recognized by the entry-exit administration department, and 2-inch photos.

In principle, a blank travel permit can only be used for returning to China, and it must be used together with a copy of the passport and a certificate of loss of the passport issued by the police in the host country. Some countries can't go through the customs when they get a travel permit, so they have to go to the immigration bureau to reissue their entry visas.
