FAQ 265
My passport / visa / BRP card has been lost or stolen. What should I do?

If you have lost your passport, visa or BRP card, or had any of these items stolen then you will need to report the loss or theft to the Police.  The Police will then be able to provide you with a crime reference number which you will need when replacing any of these items.

For passports, you will need to contact the Embassy of your home country straight away to arrange for a replacement.

If you need a new visa or BRP card, our Advisors can assist you with reporting this to the Home Office and getting a replacement. You can email visa@yorksj.ac.uk if this happens to you, and we can give you personal advice.
