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 requested. It is not possible to issue a replacement document.
The responsibility lies with the municipality, the velvet community and the city.
Documents may be required. Please contact the appropriate body.
There are no charges.
The notification must be made immediately (without culpable hesitation).
The passport cannot be taken immediately after the application has been submitted, as it is manufactured at the Bundesdruckerei in Berlin. If the passport is required earlier, an express passport can be requested.
