What should I do if my wallet, passport and other valid documents are stolen in foreign hotels?

Be sure to prepare a copy of your passport and visa in advance before reporting the case to the local police. Otherwise, it would be boring to be detained by the police on suspicion of illegal immigration. At the same time, the report materials issued by the police are used as one of the documents to reissue passports and prove tourists' legal entry and residence in the future, and also as backup materials when applying for exit visas from the local immigration bureau. Remember to keep the report materials properly.

After reporting the case, you should bring your lost certificate, passport copy and my photo to the host country, embassies and consulates in China, to reissue your passport or travel permit, so you'd better make a backup before going abroad and take one with you just in case. If you don't have a copy, you can contact your relatives in China and ask them to fax it to your hotel. It takes three months to six months to reissue a passport, and it is impossible for people traveling abroad to stay for such a long time. It is recommended to apply for a tourist card. Under normal circumstances, it takes four working days for the embassy to apply for a travel permit, and it only takes two working days to expedite it, that is, it can be obtained the next day after submitting the information. A travel permit is a document that replaces a passport and has the same effect as a passport. Generally speaking, a travel permit is valid for two years unless otherwise specified.
