If you lost your passport: the steps

  1. Search once more first. Once you report it lost, the passport is cancelled even if you find it later.
  2. Report the loss or theft at the nearest police station and get a police report or report number. Your insurer, your embassy and often immigration will ask for it. Use the cards above.
  3. Contact your embassy or consulate. Usually you need passport photos, any ID or a copy of the lost passport, and your onward ticket.
  4. In the Philippines, after getting a new passport you need a new arrival stamp from the Bureau of Immigration main office in Intramuros, Manila. Bring the BI form, an airline certificate for your arrival flight, a notarized Affidavit of Loss and the police report.

Before you go

Mobile data (eSIM)

If you get sick or lose something in Philippines, maps, translation and calling for help all need data. Install an eSIM before you fly and it works as soon as you land.

Airport transfers and transport

Taxis and directions are the hardest part when you can't speak the language in Philippines. Booking an airport pickup or transport pass in advance means less to explain on arrival.
