Identity Theft Passports
Page Content
The Office of the Attorney General offers Identity Theft passports, a tool that can:
- Help resolve financial issues caused by identity theft
- Prevent wrongful arrest if your personal identifying information is used during the commission of a crime
How to Apply:
- Download the application.
- Complete the application thoroughly and accurately, following all provided instructions.
- Include the following documents:
- A copy of the police report related to the crime
- A photocopy of your Maryland Driver's License or other State-issued identification card
- Optional: Include additional supporting documents (e.g., court documents, financial account statements, your credit report) to expedite the approval process.
We will perform a background check to verify your identity and the crime details. Once eligibility for the Passport is determined, we will contact you with instructions on how to activate your Passport and respond to any inquiries you may have.
