Extended information:

Visa is usually attached to On the passport or other international travel document held by the applicant. In special circumstances, a valid passport or other international travel document may be submitted on a separate sheet. With the advancement of science and technology, some countries have begun to issue electronic visas and biometric visas, which have greatly enhanced the anti-counterfeiting function of visas.

Visa plays an important role in a country’s control of entry and exit personnel, protection of homeland security, and prevention of illegal immigrants and criminals.

Visas are generally endorsed on the passport, and some are endorsed on other travel documents that replace the passport. Some also issue separate visas. For example, the immigration visa of the United States and Canada is a piece of A4-sized paper. Singapore also issues a separate visa to foreigners. Generally speaking, the visa must be used together with the passport to be valid.
