Following the introduction of Israeli biometric passports on June 1st 2017 changes have been made regarding the issuing of Israeli passports in Azerbaijan. In accordance with these changes the Embassy of Israel in Azerbaijan will issue passports as follows:
a) Israelis living outside of Israel – will be issued a standard (non-biometric) passport for up to 5 years.
b) Israelis who are abroad temporarily (tourist, students etc.) – will be issued a standard (non-biometric) passport for one year.
This is to say, the new biometric passports (valid for 10 years) will not be issued in New Azerbaijan and can only be obtained in Israel. Israeli citizens wanting to apply for a new biometric passport should do so when visiting Israel.

For your information, most countries and their police regularly report daily to Interpol headquarters in Lyon, France, for any notification of the loss / theft of passports of the world's citizens. These reports automatically enter a database at international border crossings around the world.
In the event that an Israeli citizen informs the Israel Police or the local police of the loss of his passport, and his passport is subsequently found by him, he will have to know that his passport has already been reported to Interpol as lost and registered in the world's lost passport database. You can not use this passport in the future and is expected to delay entry / exit at the border crossings in many countries.
In the above case, the citizen is required to obtain a travel document in the nearest Israeli embassy or consulate.
