Passport was stolen - what to do, where to go? A sample application to the police for theft

If a person was stolen from a passport, it would give him a lot of trouble and inconvenience. Naturally, in order to get rid of them as soon as possible, you need to go to the police and write a statement. The procedure should not be postponed. Otherwise, problems may arise. So, it's worth telling about how to write a statement correctly, and what you need to do in order to avoid elementary mistakes.

First actions

Have stolen the passport - what to do? First, it is necessary to react quickly to what has happened. We must go to the nearest police station. There it will be necessary to say about your problem, after - to receive a form for the application and in it to describe everything in the most detail. When the loss was seen, that they stole except the document, where it could happen, how much, etc. The more details will be described what happened, the better. When the application is accepted and registered, the victim will be given a ticket to notify the registration of the incident.

The application is necessary. Like a ticket. Since it is his person who will provide to the FMS for the registration of a new identity card. The coupon is proof that the former passport was stolen. And even on it a person can track his application and learn about the results of the investigation. The sooner the application is submitted, the better. After all, if the passport is used by fraudsters, then the person will have direct proof that he has nothing to do with, for this document was stolen.

Then what?

As soon as the application is written, it is necessary to go to the FMS. You need to take some documents with you. The first is a statement about stealing a passport, written in an arbitrary form. Second - the notorious ticket-notification received by the police. The third is a request for the issuance of a new identity card in Form 1-P. It will also require a receipt for payment of the state fee of one and a half thousand rubles and two photos.

This is the main package of documents that need to be collected if the passport was stolen and a new one must be issued. If there is a military ticket, a certificate of the birth of a child, the conclusion or dissolution of the marriage - they must also be brought. As soon as the FMS receives the documents, the person will be given a receipt. She will be his temporary identity card and a certificate that he is waiting for a new one, since his passport was stolen.

What to do next? Wait. 10 days if a person is in his region, and about two months if he is in another province or region.

Trouble

A couple of words must be said about what to expect a person who stole a passport. How to restore - it is clear, but still need to know that it can be brought to administrative responsibility. Even though the document was stolen, not lost because of your own imprudence.

There is article 19.16 of the Administrative Code. It says that every person must bear responsibility for the loss or loss of his identity card. A citizen may be issued a warning or a fine. It is usually small - from 100 to 300 rubles. However, the citizen's guilt in the loss of the document must be proved. So you can appeal the act without much difficulty. Even if the protocol is written out, and the case of an administrative offense is instituted.

However, there is one more article. 19.15 of the Administrative Code. It states that a person residing at the place of registration or residence without a passport must pay a fine. Its size is 2-3 thousand rubles. And if the citizen is a resident of Moscow or St. Petersburg, the amount will be 3000-5000 rubles. So if a person is stolen from a passport in a foreign city, you need to immediately go to the police. It is possible that the trouble will be avoided.

Why should we hurry?

If the passport was stolen, then it is necessary to act immediately. It can easily be used to open a fraudulent firm or to take loans. Many consider this a myth, but in vain. Scammers simply paste their photo into the passport (the film that covers the first page, for them and their devices is not an obstacle) and act. If a person does not apply after the loss of the document to the police, it will be very difficult for him to prove that he is not the culprit for late payments. After that, still have to return a "clean" credit history.

Time document

So, the above was said about what to do if you stole your passport. Where to turn is also clear. But how to be without this ID? Many need a passport all the time.

It's not a problem. When a person submits documents for the registration of a new passport, he has the right to ask for a temporary identity card. The validity period is, as a rule, two months. Make it in five minutes.

And this document can sometimes help out. Especially if a citizen applied to the FMS not at his place of residence. In his city, the passport is issued literally in a week, but in other regions tighten with this, hiding behind the need to check the identity of the citizen. To speed up the process, a person can provide his "wanderer" or driver's license.

How to act abroad?

The question of what to do if they stole a passport abroad, probably defeated every person who goes on a trip or business trip. And really, you have to be prepared for everything.

If such a nuisance has occurred, then we must go to the police. And there you will have to ask for a certificate that the person does not have a passport. The main difficulty arises precisely at this stage. We must try to explain to the law enforcement officers how exactly this information looks and for what it is needed. Not every state can understand such a request. And Russian legislation requires it. And still have to write a statement. This is the law. It's good, a sample of the application to the police will be provided there.

Obtaining a certificate of return

In the embassy, where you need to go after the police, you need to prove your identity. Suitable for a foreign passport. In general, it is advisable to have with you a copy of the usual, civil. Now many people download the scan on their phone or tablet. It is useful in the future.

And then, at the embassy, the citizen will be given a so-called certificate of return. For him, a person can go back to Russia. True, the certificate will require payment. The consular fee can be from 20 to 100 US dollars. Everything depends on the state in which a person lost his passport.

How to return home

This is not all that you need to know about the actions that need to be taken if the passport was stolen abroad. So, the embassy will need to present the notorious protocol (certificate), taken to the police, the application, two photographs and another identity card. It seems to be not so difficult. Yes, but this is only if the person is not far from the embassy. But when, for example, he rests on an island resort, the procedure becomes many times more complicated. As on the plane or train it without the passport will not plant. Have to get by ferry, bus or taxi. And this is a lot of waste.

It also happens that the embassy requires confirmation of the words of a citizen by witnesses. It should be two Russian people who will be able to affirm that he really lives in Russia. And they do not have to say that they know him literally a couple of days after a chance meeting in a local tavern.

The big problem is if no witnesses can be found, neither the documents in the embassy are accepted. In that case, there is only one way out - to call relatives and ask them to send those papers that they can demand at the consulate. And yet, we will have to hurry after receiving a coveted certificate of return from the embassy. Because it is only 15 days.

What else is worth knowing

It happens that the identity card was first stolen, and then they returned the passport. What should I do in such a situation? Well, in any case it will be invalid. After all, a person after the police goes to the FMS, where they make him a new document. There are several options for the development of events. First, the citizen goes to the police, tells the situation and indicates the data that returned the document to him. Most often because of considerations that he could take a loan on a stolen passport. The second option is simply to go to the FMS and hand over the find. Since the passport will still be considered invalid, and keep it at home is not worth it. If it is found, they can attract for using a fake document.

How to file a statement with the police?

This is a separate topic. There are many examples, because often a person is lost - what kind of a model application to the police does he need? Above given photo of the most suitable.

In general, you do not need to worry about it, because the police issue a form. Usually the text begins with the phrase: "I ask to bring to criminal account an unidentified person ...". If a person with 100% confidence can confirm who stole his passport, then enter the name of the culprit is allowed. But it's better not to do this, because most often the thief is not a suspect.

In the application it is necessary to describe everything in maximum detail. Starting with the cover of the document, ending with the place of theft. This often helps the investigation.

At the top, where a person usually fills out information about himself (as an applicant), it is often required to indicate the details of his passport. If a citizen remembers them, that's good. No? It's okay, as the content of the application will cancel all questions about this.

How to confirm your identity without a passport?

Fortunately, in Russia you can use many documents for this. And the 118th point of the Regulations confirms this. If, for example, the FMS is required to prove one's identity, a person has the right to present a passport, a house book, a birth certificate, and the conclusion or dissolution of a marriage. A military, hunting, trade union ticket can also be used for this. Even a work record and a certificate of release from the place of deprivation of liberty is allowed to be presented. In general, any document is suitable. The bigger, the better. Perhaps, the FMS officer, seeing a stack of documents offered for review, will not even consider them. And the passport will be made faster for the citizen.

In general, if the passport is stolen, then do not worry too much. The main thing is to react immediately. Search all around to make sure of your suspicions of theft, and contact the police. The sooner this is done, the better. After all, it is possible that the passport was stolen by fraudsters for committing atrocities.
