Lost Singapore Passport? Don’t Worry – Here’s What To Do
A lost passport must be reported immediately to the Passports Section at the Immigration & Checkpoints Authority (ICA).
Lost in Singapore – Make a police report and get a copy of the report. Bring this report as proof of loss when making the report at the Passport Section at the Immigration & Checkpoints Authority (ICA). If you also want to apply for a replacement passport at the same time, bring two passport sized photos.
Lost Overseas – Make a police report in the foreign country & request for a copy or some other proof that a report was made. Report the loss also to the nearest Singapore overseas mission with proof of your citizenship and two passport-sized photographs. You will receive a temporary Document of Identity. Upon your return to Singapore, you will have to apply for a replacement passport in person at the Immigration & Checkpoints Authority (ICA).
PRO TIP: There are manned photo booths at the ICA building on the 2nd and 3rd floor. They are generally cheaper than the ones you find in malls around Singapore. Although the queues always seem to be long, they move quickly. Check both floors to find the shorter queue – usually, the higher the floor the shorter the queue.
