Hey everyone,
So last night my card wallet seems to have disappeared on my travels from Zurich to St.Gallen. I only realised after reaching St.Gallen so it may have been on the tram or train or somewhere in HB.
Amongst the items lost was my residency permit.
I've registered my case with SBB and while I believe that it should be found and returned (there was no money/cards are blocked), I don't know if it will happen fast enough.
I am scheduled to fly back home to see my parents on Tuesday and I don't know if that is possible now or what would be the best way forward on that?
A friend said it's worth going to the immigration office asking for a temporary entry permit. But wondering if I first need to file a police report to cancel my card?
Also, do you know if this temporary permit can be done without an appointment and in a day? Looking for some advice from someone who has been through something similar before.
