If your Passport has been lost or stolen, we will help you get started in the right direction. Don't be overwhelmed. We are here to assist you each step of the way.
First, you will need to gather all of the required information (listed below) and then take them to the nearest
Acceptance Agent to seal your documents and then send your package to us via Federal Express. You will
need to complete two government forms called the DS-11, and the DS-64, as well as the
LOA Form (which stands for Letter Of Authorization... it authorizes us to process your passport paperwork).
Then download and complete the Universal Passports & Visas Order Form with your payment information and fax it to: (214) 739-3414.
