Personal Appearance: All applicants for a replacement of a lost, stolen or mutilated passport must appear in front of a US Consular Officer a the US Embassy.

You first have to call Fedex NOT the US Embassy.**

Answer 3

contact the us embassy or consulate and follow their instructions - helps if you have a copy of the lost one

Answer 4

First approach the nearest Police Station and report the date, time, location & situation when you lost your passport.

Police will file a complaint based on your situation & will register your case in file.

Get a copy of the complaint and then approach the local embassy or consulate to avail a new passport.

Remember, without a police complaint copy - NO EMBASSY OR CONSULATE WILL ISSUE YOU A NEW PASSPORT

this is what the embassy says about loss of a passport :

I lost my current passport… what do I need to get a new passport?

The applicant(s) # has to appear in person at the Consulate to apply for a new passport, and should have with them the following: #

NSO Certified Birth Certificate

Notarized Affidavit of Loss, which should also include the following information:

Date and place where the lost passport was issued

Circumstances on how the passport was lost

Reason(s) for applying for a replacement passport

Copies of state ID or driver license, permanent resident alien card, or any other valid photo identification.

A fee of $10.00 is paid upon submission of the application and there will be a fifteen (15) day waiting period for clearance from the Department of Foreign Affairs before the replacement passport can be issued.

After the waiting period has elapsed, the applicant should return to the Consulate and pay a fee of $90.00 for the issuance of the replacement passport.

If an NSO Certified Birth Certificate cannot be provided and only a Philippine Local Municipal or Local Registrar issued Birth Certificate or Statement of No Record is available, a passport with Limited (one year) Validity may be issued.

There will be no fifteen day waiting period if the lost passport was issued by the Consulate in San Francisco and if the record is available. After it has been verified that the passport was indeed issued by the Consulate, the applicant would only need to submit the requirements for application of a replacement passport and pay $90.!

Answer 6

go to the embassy in manila. explain to them that it is lost. just for your future reference, if you have not actually lost your passport yet. Always make a copy of your passport and carry the copy with you. Never carry your original with you as you shop and move around. Your copy will serve to show you have a passport, while your original travel document is safe in your hotel room.

also, if you are in some countries (such as russia or the Ukraine) the cops will try to sieze your passport and demand money to have it returned. if you are only carrying a copy, they will leave you alone.

so..if you do have a copy (I make two) and keep one on you, one in your luggage and your original in the hotel safe, you will always be protected from being stuck in a foreign country.

call the embassy and report it missing!
