Travel Document (visa)

A travel document, commonly known as a visa, is an official endorsement placed in a passport that allows a person to enter, stay, or leave a country for a specific purpose and duration. It is usually issued by the country you plan to visit and can vary in type, such as tourist, business, or work visas. Securing a visa often involves applying in advance, providing supporting documents, and meeting certain criteria. The visa does not guarantee entry; the final decision is made by immigration officers upon arrival. It helps regulate and monitor international travel and security.
