What to do if I find a passport I'd reported lost/stolen?
Never travel on a passport if it has been reported lost or stolen. You run the risk of being stopped at border crossings, as Interpol keeps a record of all reports of lost or stolen passports.
You should return the passport to the Embassy of Ireland for cancellation.
The Embassy is located at:
Whitehall Mansions
