It is recommended that you make a photocopy of your passport and Identity Card before you leave home, so that you can be identified by these documents if you lose your passport. You are also advised to keep your Identity Card separately from your passport when travelling.
If your passport is lost/stolen and you need to return to Singapore urgently, please log on to the ICA website below to report loss of passport and apply for Document of Identity (DOI):
The DOI can be collected at the Embassy.
