When in Rwanda and you have lost your passport then report the loss to the local police. The Rwandan police will open a criminal case and provide you with a case number. This will prove that you have reported the loss or theft of your Canadian passport. Call the Office of the High Commission and make an appointment to apply for a new passport. You will be told when to return for the new passport. Note that this can be a temporary travel document or a new passport. The High Commission in Rwanda does not offer passport services.

If you need to have documents notarised you can call or email the High Commission as the email has been added with the telephone number as well as the street address.
