We treat our identity documents with special care, and we protect our passport like the apple of our eye. But we should not forget about the human factor, because sometimes we can lose our vigilance and lose an important document. It is not always possible for him to be found by a decent citizen who will immediately take him to the police.
What to do if you lost your passport?
The course of action depends on the circumstances under which it happened.
If the document was stolen or lost, you must immediately record this fact by submitting a lost passport application.
After clarifying all the circumstances, you should be provided with an extract from the register of pre-trial investigations.
You must take this document to the Central Administrative Office or the Migration Service.
To obtain a new document, regardless of the reason for which you want to obtain a passport, you need to provide the following documents:
- application for lost or stolen passport;
- receipt of payment of the duty;
- extract from the place of residence;
If available:
- Child's birth certificate;
- Certificate of marriage or divorce.
