WHAT TO DO IF YOU LOSE YOUR IC

Anyone who loses an identity card (IC) must report the loss and apply for a replacement in person within 14 days, says the Immigration and Checkpoints Authority (ICA) website.
A police report is required only if you are a victim of crime.
Otherwise, you can make a Statutory Declaration when you go to the ICA to report the loss.
The replacement fee is $100 for the first loss and $300 for subsequent losses.
If a lost IC is found after a replacement has been issued, the old IC must be returned to the ICA.
