This information might be worth saving for future use if the unfortunate happens to you. This pertains to lost or damaged passports. Airports and cruise ports may deny you if there are any tears or imperfections. Please make sure your passport is available and in good condition before traveling (or booking your trip).
If you lose your passport before traveling, there are a few options. There are a few companies that will rush your passport to you for a fee. It varies depending on how quick you need it. You can also drive to one of the agencies and pick up it right away. Call ahead since you need to make an appointment. Chicago is the closest office to St Louis.
What happens if you are traveling? We always recommend taking a copy with you and also leave a copy with someone at home. This speeds up the process. You will need to contact the closest US consulate or embassy to report it. Identity theft is so common here and abroad. Find out the hours and visit them as soon as possible. There will be forms to complete so check out the website at travel.state.gov for more information. These agencies will do their best to assist you with a new passport or temporary one to get you home. Be sure to have any additional forms of identification and your itinerary. This is when a copy of your passport comes in handy.
