Visa

A visa or visa is an identification document that is issued by a country that allows the entry or exit of individuals for a well-established period of time and that is registered within the laws of the country that processes it.

To obtain a visa or visa, legal and current documentation is required, as well as paperwork intended to know the interests of the person since among the characteristics of the visa is the exchange of knowledge, business, education, or political interests of a country to another.

Passport

The passport is a document with international validity that a citizen requests from the documentation system of their country of origin.

It is framed within agreements between countries, to grant permission to their citizens to transit for a period of time established in the territories of the member countries of the treaty.

The time of stay in the foreign country is relative to the interest or object for which the trip is made, in the migration offices located on each border of the countries they grant exit and entry through stamps, which validate the transfer of the person either for tourism, business or shopping reasons.
