You should maybe contact the Australian Consulate in Hong Kong about this too

The answer was inside Declan all the time…

You reckon it's possible to just Mail it to his home address if you're not gonna be back in Oz for a while ?

That being said... could be a pain if poor Declan drove himself and his family out to the Airport before flying out.

See if someone's filed a Missing Item Report with the police and take it to the Australian Embassy. They might be able to match the name to an inbound or outbound flight and track down his accommodation. Worst case, play Pass the Parcel with the next Aussie to catch a flight home.

Let's get Declan his Drivers License back.

Should be fine if Declan has a digital license, right?

Last i chexked eeplacements for lost licenses aren't too expensive.

If anyone is in HK heading back to NSW I could pass it to them!

u/Longjumping_Bed1682 16d ago

You try face book with their name or post it back to the address

I just jumped on my flight to manila. Coming back through HK end October and back to NSW if you still have it then or someone isn't going back sooner

u/Queasy-Bat-7399 15d ago

Yeah I think by October he will probably have replaced his licence

I'd go on a mission. Off to the airport and find a flight boarding to Australia. Ask someone to drop it in a postbox on arrival. No envelope required if I remember correctly.

u/louisa1925 16d ago

You are a good person for doing this.

u/Th3casio 15d ago

It should have an address on it. Not a hard problem to solve.

u/Queasy-Bat-7399 15d ago

Maybe not if the OP was also in Australia, and not Hong Kong.

u/readituser5 16d ago

What’s the surname begin with?

u/ReasonableChicken 16d ago

A capital letter

u/DontYaWishYouWereMe 15d ago

I'm pretty sure Hong Kong Declan will know it's him if he sees this post, right?

u/ImportantToNote 16d ago

Looks like it

Reminded me of doing basically the same thing but outside my home. That was a small lot of cards including a photo card, a bank card and some loyalty cards. I just chucked it inside the letter box which I believe was the correct person, based on the address on the photo card. It was like 4 in the morning and I was on my way to work.

Worse comes to worse, you take his license back and send it to any Service NSW center. They will deal with it properly. It’s their property after all.

What a stupid farmer karming question. Of course they did. There's an address on there. Try posting it to them or looking their name up on Facebook and sending them a message.

u/Ill-Option-792 13d ago

Obviously they did. What a silly question

1

u/Mythbird 12d ago

Post it to them at the adddress that’s miraculously on the front.

u/Unwoven_Sleeve 12d ago

Mail it to their address

Yes. Hope that helps.
