If you want to travel around the world, what about your passport and visa?

When traveling around the world, you can go directly to the embassies of various countries to apply for visas. You must apply for a visa every time you go to a country, otherwise you will be banned from entering the country.

According to the principles of international law, any sovereign country has the right to decide whether to allow foreigners to enter or leave the country, and to issue visas, refuse to issue visas or announce the cancellation of visas already issued according to its own laws.

The visa is usually attached to the passport or other international travel documents held by the applicant. Under special circumstances, valid passports or other international travel documents can be written on a separate sheet. With the progress of science and technology, some countries began to issue electronic visas and biological visas, which greatly enhanced the anti-counterfeiting function of visas.

Visa plays an important role in checking and controlling entry-exit personnel, protecting national security and preventing illegal immigrants and criminals.
