Consular Section strongly recommends that U.S. citizens report the loss or theft of their U.S. passport immediately to the district office of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of the Republic of Uzbekistan, which covers the area where the passport was lost or stolen. This office will then issue a letter confirming the report. This letter will be very useful in renewing the Uzbek visa or obtaining an exit visa from the country and will in general make the affected citizen’s departure less troublesome.

• Other government issued identification document. Original and a copy.
