How To Get A Replacement Passport
Report your physical U.S. passport lost or stolen immediately to protect yourself from identity theft. You can replace it now or later - it's up to you!

How to Report your Lost or Stolen Passport
Report your passport lost or stolen by using one of the 3 options below:
1) Online:
Click on the tool below, and navigate to the "Report Lost or Stolen" tab.
Use our form filler to report your passport lost or stolen
When you report your passport lost or stolen using our form filler, we will ask if you want to reapply for a new passport. The form filler will create both a Report of a Lost or Stolen Passport (DS-64) and an Application for a U.S. Passport (DS-11) if you tell us you want to reapply for a new passport.
2) Mail:
Complete, sign, and mail Form DS-64 to the address on the form.
3) Phone:
Call us toll-free at 1-877-487-2778 (TTY 1-888-874-7793). If you want to apply for a new passport, you'll have to also fill out the paper Form DS-64 to turn in with your application.

No. No one can travel internationally using only a U.S. passport number. Travelers must present an original, physical version of a U.S. passport book or U.S. passport card upon entering a foreign country and when returning to the United States from a foreign country.
The U.S. passport book and passport card are highly secure documents with numerous security features designed to prevent successful counterfeiting.
We do not recommend reporting your U.S. passport lost or stolen if your passport number was compromised. You should only report your U.S. passport lost or stolen if the original, physical version of the passport book or passport card has been lost or stolen. Once you report a U.S. passport lost or stolen, it is invalid and cannot be used for international travel.
