When you need to replace your Dominica passport

A Dominica passport must be replaced if it is lost, stolen, or damaged to the extent that it cannot be used for travel or identification. In the event of a change in personal details, such as a legal name change, the passport must also be replaced.

Lost or stolen passports must be reported to the Immigration Department in Roseau, the nearest police station, or the nearest Dominica Consulate.
