Difference between visa and green card

Today, I'd like to introduce the differences among passports, visas and green cards. First of all, passport is a necessary document for you to enter and leave the country. It is issued by the Exit-Entry Administration where your account is located, and some areas are in the Public Security Bureau. The latest policy allows you to apply for a passport in different places. You can hold a passport of whatever country you are a citizen of, and you must have the nationality of that country before you can have a passport. Accordingly, only if you have the nationality of the country and hold the passport of the country, you will enjoy the visa exemption of this country. Then there is the visa, which is issued by the immigration office of the destination country. The visa is attached to the passport. You can't apply for a visa without a passport, and you may not be able to apply for a visa with a passport. Some countries grant visa-free access to China, and some developed countries even find it difficult to apply for visas. A visa is a special stamp on a page of a passport, which was completed at the embassy. After the visa is completed, you can legally go to the corresponding country. Every visa has a time limit, and you must return to China before the time expires. Finally, let's talk about the green card, which is a permanent residence permit for foreign citizens. Holding a green card means that the cardholder has permanent residency in the issuing country, and at the same time, holding a green card can exempt the entry visa for a certain period of time. In fact, a green card is a permanent residence visa. Having a green card does not mean that you have joined the nationality of this country. Therefore, holding a green card of this country is only convenient for entering and leaving the country, but you cannot enjoy the visa-free treatment of this country. Green card and passport are both identities obtained by going abroad, and they are two different kinds of identification. The identity of "green card" is "permanent residence". In the process of immigration before obtaining "green card", many countries generally issue "residence card" or "temporary green card" first, and after holding the residence card to meet certain conditions, it can be upgraded to a green card "permanent residence card". After obtaining permanent residency, you can also apply for naturalization if you can meet the corresponding residence and language requirements stipulated in the Immigration Act. After the naturalization application is approved, you can become a citizen of the country and get a "passport" of the country. Have you learned the above knowledge?
