What to do if you lose your passport

If you’re planning an overseas trip this Christmas (lucky you!) then you should be double checking your passport and any necessary visas round about now. A lost passport will take 10-15 days to replace, so if it’s gone missing you really want to find out now rather than the day you travel!

The Age has written up a handy guide of what to do if you lose your passport, which includes contact details for the Australian Passport Information Service. Bear in mind that it costs $200 to replace an adult passport, so it’s worth taking the time for a second look before reporting your passport lost.
