Report promptly
Report a damaged passport immediately; after reporting it cannot be used. Tears, missing pages, loose binding, water-faded pages, a broken chip or a cracked biodata page are examples of damage.
Submit the report and replace
Use the official reporting service for yourself or a child under 16. Prepare Singpass and the circumstances/photos relevant to the report. Overseas, the nearest Singapore mission can assist. Apply for a new passport one working day after reporting. Add S$50 for a first loss/damage or S$100 for subsequent cases to the S$70 online/S$80 counter passport fee.
