Years ago, I got one from the British Embassy in Lagos, Nigeria which allowed me to leave the Country and they later helpfully recovered my original passport from my Employer, (a very powerful Man), and returned it to me in the UK. (I then returned to Nigeria to work for another Company). Snoop - you've gotta ask at least ! Good luck. I don't know the UK, but usually there is not an emergency 'passport' but emergency travel documents for returning a limited purpose such as returning home or a specific country and return. The passport would have to go through normal (or expedited -- if available) process. Not all countries accept emergency travel documents for entry. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Need passport to get on a bus. Tourist police arranged bus travel, the photo is taken at the Phuket Bus Terminal, it says in the link to Thaiger News. Ps, there's a bus in the original photo. ????

You are correct that only he can use it, but it is NOT his property. If she was to be charged, it would be the UK government charging her for theft of official documents or something like that. (they don't tend to do that with relatives though unless they use them for other purposes). If you open your passport, I think it is even printed in there (if not it was on the application form). The owner of passports is the state (I don't know of any states that actually grant you ownership). [depending on when issued] "This passport remains the property of Her Majesty's Government and may be withdraw at any time if the holder ceases to be entitled to the protection of Her Majesty's Government," or "This passport remains the property of Her Majesty's Government and may be withdrawn at any time."
