Reporting it missing.<\/B><\/p>\n<p>  This is  by far the most critical step in the process as the Lebanese law is very unforgiving of people walking around without IDs. You must report your ID missing\/stolen <i>within 24 hours<\/i> or risk the investigation process becoming much more grueling. You must file this report at the police station nearest to the location where you lost it.<\/p>\n<p>  <B>2. Gathering the paperwork.<\/b><\/p>\n<p>  These are the documents you\u2019ll need in order to create a replacement ID card:<\/p>\n<p>  &#8211; The police report from step one.<br \/>  &#8211; ID photos (notarized).<br \/>  &#8211; Individual Civil Registry Extract (\u0625\u062e\u0631\u0627\u062c \u0642\u064a\u062f \u0641\u0631\u062f\u064a) that\u2019s no older than 6-months.<br \/>  &#8211; A medical report of your blood type (this can be done at any medical lab).<br \/>  &#8211; Proof of residence and an application form for a new ID (to be produce at your local moukhtar).<\/p>\n<p>  <B>3.

usually a couple of months). <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>So you went wild on one fateful Mar Mikhael night and you woke up the next day with mysterious bruises and no
