Hi, I had similar experience last week.same day of arrival my passport and my Sweden RP card was stolen along with my wife and son passport and RP. I did a FIR, called Sweden embassy,they have sent one page of decision letter of visa, send a mail to indian embassy italy and got a call back to come and collect a letter to prove my identity. So with all doc I was able to travel back within EU. Basically they checked FIR copy having all the passport and visa number in that....other documents are good to have. But in case you have similar situation.you can try with FIR if not able to get other docs.
u have guts,patience to handle problems and look after family for 5days in foreign land, ur parents r lucky to have u
isn't this the worst? bro i feel extremely bad for you, the way you were treated by your own people in the embassy in a foreign country. Makes you question the work of foreign affairs and the attitude of government employees who are there to work and not enjoy a holiday in a foreign country. It makes sense why people move abroad eventually, I have never seen a US /Euro citizen facing such petty issues. This is purely due to sheer incompetence and lack work ethics of the government employees. Polish embassy wanted to help you, but not the indian.

Hello, this was worst, unfortunate and never expected. I think not all the staff was same. But yeah we had a lot of inconvenience. On other hand, when I visited Polish Embassy, the environment was calm and they were treating people with all the respect they deserve. On a lighter note, this is not the only reason people surrender their nationalities, there are several other reasons and personal preferences. Appreciate your comment and genuine concern.

Hi Krish, The way you handled the situation along with family is really appreciating. This video will be a learning experience for others. Thanks and God bless.
Italy and France are the two most unsafe places for tourist . Their are hundreds of pretty women on pawl looking for unsuspecting travellers . Also one has to be extremely careful in bus as their are high chances you might loose your entire luggage . Its unfortunate what happened to you but the situation is really bad out there .

I completely agree with you. What I heard from local people that there are some group of couples who pretend like they are tourists, but they are actually not. I would highly recommend to everyone who travel to these places that always leave your important things in your hotel and even if you have to carry something with you, then split the things amongst your cotravelers/family members.

Why he was roaming around in Rome with all original passports???? He has to keep them in safe at hotel.................
Stealing is very common in Italy. First time we were alert so nothing happened but next time we were traveling from one place to another of Italy . We parked the car on roadside parking with all our baggages as we were traveling thru Italy to France. We had lunch and when we reached the car , which was rental , the window glass was broken open and the bag kept behind driver seat was stolen, which had at least 10,000$ stuff with 3 American passports. We called the policeman passing by but he didn’t stop and finally we were sent to the police station where they seemed to be very used to such situations and very casually said that to do the formalities and go. Next day we reached Milan , American embassy , where within 1hr n half we got our temporary passports. This is the beauty of being American citizens. No documents were required except the tickets and visa which were on phone .Had we lost our Indian passports it would have been a big catastrophe. An advice to all traveling to Europe , please keep money and passports close to your body . T
Wow what a harrowing experience it must have been for you, and especially for your parents, who both looked emotionally and physically exhausted! Ashamed to see such disgraceful attitude of Indian embassy in Italy. Glad to know the situation was finally resolved! But especially commendable is your calm persona through this all. It was so sweet to see your father adapting to the problem and still singing which is such a positive inspiration to all of us. Thanks for sharing!

Thanks for uploading the video/experience. I have also gone through the same phase in Kuala Lumpur,Malaysia. We have lost (stolen) all 7 (seven) pasport of my family members.. We have luckily got helf from our embassy and of Malaysia embassy, received the EC and returned to India in sechuled time. Thanks to the embassy staff. They know that a racket is going on for storing , particular PASSPORT. I understand your problem and remembering our experience. I will definitely share the video, for awareness among others. Please Keep your PASPORT in tact. It's my masage to all travellers.
It’s extremely disheartening to hear about this incident that happened with you, but I am extremely impressed how you handled this situation. God bless you and your family.
I have come so many, who loose passports and bags in Italy and Paris….we must thank peaceful community for the great job done

What an awful thing to happen, you have my sympathy. TOP TIP: Never ever carry a passport or other important documents in a bag. Put them in a money belt/body wallet - under your clothing when travelling if you don't have enough suitable pockets.
It's really commendable how calm all of you were during this period,
You are being nice to clerks working in Indian Consulate. They get this posting by buttering bosses and pulling strings. Their objective is - काम ना करो, कम से कम जो कर सके वोह करो। काम ना करनेके लिए गलत बाते बता। As you go up, the officers are selected through competitive exams and they understand rules and laws better, also better mentality then lower level clerks.
I feel so sad for you after seeing this video.. I just had one of my international trip last week, I can resonate completely how miserable it can become... it completely shattered your enjoyment!! But brother, my Kudos to you, the way you handled this fiasco and meanwhile made this video.. just superbbbbb 👍

Undoubtedly, Italy is beautiful but these kind of thefts are becoming very common there these days there. Local authorities have to be more strict to save tourists from all these incidents. As a tourist, we also have to be more careful to avoid such circumstances.

Very unfortunate incident. I admire the way you were able to think on your feet in such a tensed and helpless situation. I liked the manner in which you handled the Indian Embassy staff. A small suggestion for those reading this. In such situations; do tweet roping in Ministry of External Affairs. It does get there attention. I am sure you will continue to travel. Always make sure one person is alert and watches when another person is opening the bag. Hope all is well now. Take care!

I'm truly sorry for your loss and the inconvenience. However, I can't comprehend why people carry their passports when they're on various excursions. No one is going to ask for your passport or where you're from once you've already entered the country. Please remember to always leave your passport in the hotel room safe provided by the hotel. I've visited hundreds of places in Europe and never carried my passport, and no one ever asked for it. I had a close call in Rome, Italy, but luckily, my wife managed to snatch her bag back. I apologize if my comment seems harsh, but I'm genuinely upset. I don't understand why people carry such important documents like passports while visiting places, not while they're traveling between countries.

I really appreciate your comment and concern. I’m not sure why Carried our passports on that day. Usually during travel we always keep them in the hotel room. But unfortunately, as we were in hurry, we completely forgot to take out the passports from the small carry bag after checking in to the hotel. Anyways, it was a lesson learnt kind of thing for us and many others who watch this video.

However there's one thing that automatically makes the person on the other side of the table take you seriously is how serious you look, sound n how much with conviction you speak... unfortunately to me you sounded extremely cool while you lost your passports or while you were talking to embassy....

Thanks for all the information. One this is for sure no place in the world is safe. Once you are abroad your passport is the only guarantee or you are nomad even if you have a million $ in your pocket. A big lesson Always keep xerox copies of any document where ever you are. Best of luck to you all.
Take care your family and be careful.
Good afternoon .. yes you need to first get n EC ( emergency certificate) and thereafter what I presume is that you have to get back to India first then get your original passport issued then only you can pursue your further journey,
My son too lost his bag in train when we were returning back from Salzburg to Munich which had his passport n power bank... we immediately had contacted the officials in the train n after sometime one officer came to us with his bag which was thrown in dustbin outside the railway station, his passport was safe n they had taken away the power bank... That's nothing bcos he had got his passport back.. though we were so careful, still these kind of things happen sometimes...
I feel so bad for you It is so tiresome when you lose something important abroad...
People should never go through which you and your family has gone through. But at the same time the people working in the embassy should always help and guide those who are in problem specially those who are not in their country. They are the representatives and should assist their own people who are in problems in the foreign nations.
it is good for indian embassy that they are helping.. but eventually they helped . thanks to the good officer.
