What should I do if I lose my passport in Cambodia?

The passport is a separate small book. It is a document that must be prepared to go abroad. It is also one of the necessary conditions for applying for a visa. Because you must be prepared to carry it with you when you go abroad, it is very likely to be lost, especially in foreign countries. This kind of thing often happens. What should I do if my passport is lost in Cambodia?

If you lose your passport or visa while traveling in Cambodia, don't panic and don't trust some unclear local institutions or people to look for it. The most correct way is to call the police in time and explain your situation in detail with the local police for help.

The purpose of calling the police is to facilitate the application for an exit visa to the local immigration bureau, so that relevant agencies can understand that you entered Cambodia legally and did not enter Cambodia through illegal channels. This can reduce many misunderstandings and also reduce the involvement of criminals using passports to do some illegal things after the passport is lost.

If you can't get help from the relevant departments, you can also ask to contact the Chinese embassy and consulate in the local area for help. The embassy and consulate will learn about the situation from the relevant departments, help reflect the situation, or make necessary representations. At the same time, we should also pay attention to holding my relevant identity materials, photocopies and photos until the Chinese embassy or consulate in the local area to apply for a replacement passport or travel permit for return to China.

In fact, it is not terrible to lose your passport in Cambodia, as long as the applicant reports the loss and reissues it in time, but after the passport is lost, it is recommended that the applicant return to China as soon as possible, because it is more difficult to go abroad without a passport, and if there are some emergencies, it may be affected by the passport.
