My passport is missing! What do I do?

Whether your purse gets stolen or you simply misplaced your passport while on your trip, panic instantly sets in. How am I going to get back home without my passport? Bad news is – you can’t travel back into the United States without your passport. Good news is – Centurion Travel Assistance can help you get a replacement passport right away. 

  • If your passport was stolen, file a police report with local authorities right away.

  • Call our 24/7 International Response Center. One of our agents will help you find the closest U.S. Embassy or Consulate.

  • Don’t worry about international calls. We’ll call you! Also, we can help by coordinating directly with the embassy or consulate to get you an appointment scheduled. Having an appointment ahead of time will help expedite the process and save you time in their waiting room.

  • If you were a victim of serious crime, but sure to tell the officer at the embassy or consulate. 

  • Bring a passport photo with you to your appointment. This will help speed things up.

What can I do to make this process faster BEFORE I leave for my trip?

  • Always leave a copy of your documents with a family member at home. Having access to these copies will help you get a replacement sooner. Leave a copy of your passport, birth certificate, and driver’s license.

  • It’s also a good idea to leave a copy of your itinerary with family. This will help them know what city, tour or hotel you will be at in case of emergencies back at home. 

  • Give your family the Centurion 24/7 contact number. We’re happy to deliver any emergency messages to you.
