Lost or Stolen - Resident in Croatia

If you are resident in Croatia and your passport has been stolen or lost, you must follow the following steps:

1. Immediately report the lost or theft to your nearest police station and make a report.

2. Apply to the Embassy of Ireland Zagreb, for a full new passport. For general advice, please see our step-by-step guide on how to apply for a passport.

All applicants must include:
