海外遺失護照：在警局和大使館需要的英語

失竊護照可能令人感到沮喪，但下一步的對話可以一步一步地處理。首先確保你的人身安全，然後確認護照是否真正遺失，按照要求報告，並聯繫適當的大使館或領事館。

不同國家和國籍的程序可能有所不同。請使用官方政府指南以了解確切的步驟。

說明發生了什麼事

• “I’ve lost my passport.”
• “My passport was stolen.”
• “I last saw it yesterday evening at the hotel.”
• “I noticed it was missing this morning.”
• “My bag was taken on the metro.”
• “My passport number is in this photocopy.”

當你不知道物品去哪裡時，使用 lost；當有人取走它時，使用 stolen。不要僅因為可能使索賠更容易而說被盜；官方報告必須準確。

在警察局

• “I need to report a lost passport.”
• “Could I file a police report?”
• “Is there an officer who speaks English?”
• “Could I have a copy of the report?”
• “What is the report or reference number?”
• “How can I contact the lost property office?”

警察可能會問你最後一次使用護照的時間和地點、還有什麼東西遺失、是否看到任何可疑的情況、以及你目前住在哪裡。

警察報告對話

警官： When did you last have your passport?

旅客： At about 4 p.m. yesterday, when I checked into my hotel.

警官： When did you notice it was missing?

旅客： At 8 this morning. I checked my room and asked reception, but they haven’t found it.

警官： Was anything else taken?

旅客： No. My wallet and phone are still with me.

警官： Please write your contact details here.

旅客： All right. Could I get a copy of the report for my embassy?

聯繫大使館或領事館

• “I’m a citizen of [country], and my passport has been lost.”
• “I need an emergency travel document.”
• “Do I need an appointment?”
• “Which documents should I bring?”
• “How long does the process usually take?”
• “My flight leaves on Friday. Will I need to change it?”
• “Is there an emergency number outside office hours?”

大使館可能會要求另一份照片身份證、護照照片、公民身份證明、警察報告、旅行預訂、以及費用。要求可能有所不同，因此請直接確認。

有用的旅行和酒店請求

• “Could you print these documents for me?”
• “May I use this address for the application?”
• “Could you extend my stay for two nights?”
• “I need to change my flight because my passport is missing.”
• “Could you tell me the change fee?”
• “Will this emergency document be accepted for my connection?”

如果你的替代旅程途經另一個國家，請向大使館和航空公司詢問是否允許使用你收到的文件進行轉機。

出發前保護自己

請保留一份安全的數字護照信息頁和簽證副本，與實體護照分開存放。將另一份副本留給你信任的人。儲存你的大使館的官方聯繫信息和旅行保險政策號碼。

不要將所有身份證件放在同一個袋子裡。單獨存放的備用身份證可以使替換更容易。

一句平靜的總結

當你到達新的辦公桌時，從這個模式開始：“My passport went missing yesterday in [place]. I have reported it to the police, and I need to find out how to get an emergency travel document.” 它告訴聽者事件、已採取的行動和你需要的幫助。
