I lost old U.S. passport or citizenship paperwork. Can I get copies of old State Department records?

A: Often, yes. The State Department keeps U.S. passport records dating back to March 1925 and may have old passport applications and certain citizenship records, including Consular Reports of Birth Abroad. These records can help when the original paperwork is missing. They are not a travel history and do not show every trip, visa, or entry stamp. For citizenship proof, request the specific record you actually need.
