What if the same thing happens after you call to report a lost passport? Here&#8217;s what you need to know if you find your passport after reporting it lost or stolen:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Just like a credit card, a passport is invalid after it&#8217;s reported lost or stolen. Don&#8217;t try to use your passport to travel-you&#8217;ll have to wait until you get a new one!<\/li>\n<li>Send the passport in to the following address:<\/li>\n<li>\n<blockquote><p><strong>U.S.<\/strong> <strong>Department of State<br \/>\n<\/strong>Passport Services<br \/>\n<strong>Consular Lost\/Stolen Passport Section<\/strong><br \/>\n<strong>1111 19th Street, NW, Suite 500<\/strong><br \/>\n<strong>Washington, DC 20036<\/strong><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<\/li>\n<li>If you\u2019d like, when you send in your lost passport you can include a written request to have your passport returned to you once it\u2019s canceled. The Department of State will cancel the passport and then send it back so that you can keep it as a souvenir of your international travels.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>If you\u2019ve lost your passport and you have an international trip planned in the near future, you can get your new passport expedited. The US Passport Agency offers expedited service to replace a lost passport for an additional charge of $60.00 plus overnight shipping. With this option, you\u2019ll get your new passport within 2 weeks. If you need it sooner, you can apply in person at a US Passport Agency office. If you don\u2019t have the time to spare or there isn\u2019t an office near you, a private expediting company can get your passport for you in as little as 24 hours, with no appointments or waiting in line necessary!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Have you ever called your bank or credit card company to report a lost or stolen card, only to find it the very next day?
