DS-11 AND DS-64

Replacing a Lost/Stolen/Damaged Passport

American citizens whose passports have been lost or stolen should first report this to the local police. Yemeni police generally require that the loss of the passport be advertised in a local Arabic-language newspaper before they will issue a police report. The Embassy strongly encourages American citizens to report lost or stolen passports as soon as possible.  Once a passport is reported lost or stolen to the Embassy, it can no longer be used for travel, even if it is subsequently found or returned.
