Traveling involves adventure, but it also means being prepared for the unexpected. If you lose your passport, visa, ID, or bank cards during your stay, here's how to act quickly and efficiently.
1. Stay calm and check everything twice.
Before you panic, check your belongings thoroughly: suitcases, pockets, backpack, hotel safe. Many lost items turn up after a thorough search.
2. Report the loss to the authorities.
Go to a local police station to file a report. This document will be useful for consular procedures, activating insurance, or blocking cards.
3. Contact your embassy or consulate.
They will advise you on how to obtain a temporary passport. Bring the police report, digital identification or a printed copy, and a passport-style photo if you have one.
4. Cancel your cards as soon as possible.
Call your bank and block any lost cards. Some institutions allow you to send a new card abroad or activate temporary digital payment solutions.
5. Inform your travel insurance company.
Many policies cover the loss of documents or cards. Check if they offer assistance with consular procedures or reimbursement of associated expenses.
6. Be prepared for next time.
Keep secure digital copies of your documents in apps such as 1Password or OneDrive. Also carry a physical copy separate from the originals. And if you use public Wi-Fi, protect yourself with a VPN.

This is not the ideal trip for visiting many cities in just a few days. It’s best to choose one or two places to stay for several days to maintain a stable routine. Young children thrive in familiar environments. If they find their favorite ice cream shop or a playground with swings, they’ll want to return again and again.
