Lost or Stolen Passports: Report your lost or stolen passport immediately to the U.S. Department of State to protect yourself from identity theft. You can do so online, by phone or through the mail.
If your passport is lost or stolen abroad, report the loss immediately to the local police authorities and the nearest U.S. Embassy or Consulate.
Before traveling abroad, make a copy of your passport’s identification page and carry on extra passport-size photo with you just in case.
