Passport report for theft
The theft of a passport must be reported to the competent authority.
There is no obligation to apply for a new passport. If a passport is still required, a new passport must be applied for. It is not possible to issue a replacement document.
The responsibility lies with the municipality, the Joint Community and the city.
Documents may be required. Please contact the competent authority.
There are no fees.
The notification must be made immediately (without undue delay).
The passport cannot be taken immediately after the application has been submitted, as it is produced at the Bundesdruckerei in Berlin. If the passport is needed earlier, an express pass can be requested.
