OPTION A - INCORRECT
Incorrect use of possessive pronoun ''their''. Here, we'll follow the rule of concord. ''One'' should attract a singular possessive pronoun ''theirs''
This makes the option incorrect.

OPTION B - INCORRECT
One's does not agree with them. Singular pronoun attracts singular pronoun. Them as been used here is in the plural hence, this option is not correct.

OPTION C - CORRECT
The verb agreement and parallelism in this choice of question is superb and it agrees accordingly. One should.....one's passport.....
This parallelism makes the option correct.

OPTION D - INCORRECT
One's passport...with them. This does not show accurate agreement in any form but rather disagreement. This option is incorrect.

OPTION E - INCORRECT
The use of his is irrelevant because we don't refer to a certain gender. The use of one's can still attract the female gender thus she can still be used too. This makes this option incorrect.
