If you lost your passport: the steps

Search once more first. Once you report it lost, the passport is cancelled even if you find it later.
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.
Contact your embassy or consulate. Usually you need passport photos, any ID or a copy of the lost passport, and your onward ticket.
In Taiwan, besides the police report, get a certificate of the lost foreign passport record (外國護照遺失紀錄證明) from a National Immigration Agency service center. The Korean Mission asks for it when you apply for an emergency passport, and it is used at exit control. Check with the Mission whether any other immigration step is needed for the new passport before you leave.

Emergency numbers

If a life is in danger, call the emergency number first.

Before you go

Mobile data (eSIM)

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

See Airalo eSIM plans

Airport transfers and transport

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

Travel medical insurance

A hospital visit in Taiwan can cost a lot without insurance. Travel insurance can cover treatment, and most insurers ask for the medical certificate, itemized receipt and police report these cards help you request.
