How many times do you say “It won’t happen to me” when you hear a misfortune? Last year over 58,000 British and Australian passports were reported lost or stolen, according to Passport Support - a new service allowing travelers to store secure copies of travel documents online.

The service available on www.passportsupport.com provides secure online storage for copies of travel documents including passports, visas, air tickets, identity documents and travelers cheques.

Until now travelers have been taking original copies of documents for identification purposes and to accelerate the replacement process if the originals are misplaced.

Passport Support will be useful to all travelers, and in particular frequent, business travelers.

The stored online documents are secured by bank level encryption and security to prevent unauthorized access. They can be accessed 24 hours a day, 7 days a week from anywhere in the world.
