Travel Tips No.3 : Lost Passport, Credit Cards?



Some of us may have encounter a situation when we lost our passport or credit cards when we travel. This happened when we were pick pocketed or rob or just lost our bag.

The situation is much worse when it happen in a foreign country. You may  have to travel to the nearest consulate or embassy to do the necessary paper work. The process can sometimes take a week.

Many of us could not even remember the passport no. and credit card no. With the no. you could at least fasten the process of reapplying a new passport or a temporary travel document and call the relevent credit card co. to cancel the credit card.

To do that there is a simple way to solve this.

Scan all your document i.e. passport, credit cards, Identification card and others and send it to yourself as a attachment to your email., then open a folder for this.

Next time when you lost any of the documents you can go to the nearest internet cafe, retrieve them and print.

This will help you  hasten the process.

Happy Travelling.
