The process depends on why you do not have your old passport and whether you are applying for a renewal or a new passport. Knowing which application to use is an important first step when applying for a passport without an old passport.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>What Happened to Your Old Passport?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Start by determining why you no longer have your passport.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Your previous passport may have been:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Lost<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Stolen<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Damaged<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Expired<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Returned to you separately<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Unavailable for another reason<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The circumstances can affect which forms and supporting documents you need.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>What If Your Passport Was Lost or Stolen?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>If you lost or had your passport stolen, report it to the <a href=\"https:\/\/travel.state.gov\/en\/international-travel\/travel-advisories\/smart-traveler-enrollment-program.html?gad_source=1&amp;gad_campaignid=22996730097&amp;gbraid=0AAAAAqbBk5vmc-hG1LAfffeer9KBIkNAN&amp;gclid=CjwKCAjwwL_UBhAjEiwAEhuT5Lsv9y31PtoSr261uqIdBqUADN_OmAXjfLk-4luUB-xdumiGjOkU1BoCb8YQAvD_BwE\">U.S. Department of State<\/a>.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The State Department cancels a reported passport, and you can&#8217;t use it for international travel.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">You will then need to apply for a replacement passport. Additional documentation may be required depending on your situation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>What If Your Passport Simply Expired?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>An expired passport is different from a lost passport.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If you still have your expired passport, you may be able to use it as part of a renewal application, depending on the circumstances.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">However, if your expired passport is missing, you may need to use a different process.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Do not assume that an expired passport can be ignored simply because it is no longer valid for travel.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Can You Apply Without Any Previous Passport?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Yes<\/strong>, you may still be able to apply for a U.S. passport.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If you cannot submit your previous passport, you will need to provide the other documents required for your application.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>These may include:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Proof of U.S. citizenship<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Government-issued identification<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Passport photo<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Completed passport application<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Additional documentation based on your circumstances<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The exact requirements depend on the type of application you are submitting.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>What If You Cannot Find Your Citizenship Documents?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Losing your old passport can become more complicated if you also don&#8217;t have proof of citizenship.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">You may need a birth certificate, naturalization certificate, or other qualifying citizenship document.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If your citizenship documents are also missing, you may need to replace them before completing your passport application.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>What If You Have Upcoming International Travel?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If you need a passport without an old passport and have international travel coming up, start the process as soon as possible.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Your travel date can affect which passport processing options are available.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Expedited services may be available for eligible travelers who need their passports sooner.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>How The Passport Office Can Help<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.thepassportoffice.com\/\">The Passport Office <\/a>helps travelers with new passport applications, renewals, lost and stolen passports, child passports, corrections, and expedited passport services.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Our team can review your situation and help you understand which documents you may need when your previous passport is unavailable.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">We have locations in Seattle, Atlanta, Washington DC, Orlando, Tampa, Miami, Hollywood, and Clearwater. <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.thepassportoffice.com\/contact.php\">Virtual appointments<\/a><\/strong> are also available for travelers nationwide.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Final Thoughts<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">You can still apply for a passport if you don&#8217;t have your old passport. However, the process depends on what happened to your previous passport and what other citizenship and identification documents you have.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If you lost or had your passport stolen, report it and start the replacement process promptly. If you have upcoming international travel, ask about expedited options as early as possible.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>If you need a new passport but do not have your previous one, you may still be able to apply.
