Photograph your passport and ID before every trip
Cuts an emergency replacement from days to hours.
Why it works
Embassies need the passport number, issue date and a photo to process an emergency document, all of which are on the photo page. Having it already in your email or cloud storage means that information survives even if the physical passport does not.
Did it work for you?
One tap, one report per person. Reports are how we find out which fixes don't hold up.
