Lost my damn wallet a few days ago.

I have blocked my bank cards and reported my ID card as lost to the police.

Now, I'm wondering how to go about replacing my ID-kort. I got it originally from the Skatteverket. Do I just apply again in the usual way? Or can I simply request a replacement? All advice appreciated?

To update on this original post:

I was sure I had left my wallet at the checkout in my local ICA and returned immediately to check. Staff had a look around and informed me it wasn't handed in our stored where they keep lost valuables.

About 2 months later I got a call from ICA saying they had my wallet (they checked my ID and looked me up). I went down to collect it. All my cards were there but cash had gone from about 3000kr to 1000kr. I still gave a 500kr reward because I took a quick look and saw some notes inside.

Long story short, I wasn't pickpocketed nor did I need to order a replacement ID card.

Gah, I lost mine here in Paris. I got doctor's appointments coming up and my passport is with Migrationsverket since I applied for extension (PUT). I'm fucked. I just wanna know what the process is, and if I need to jump through hoops again.
