About Visa:
Visa (word Visa is derived from Latin Carta visa, lit. “the document having been seen”) is a permit given by a country that allows individual to visit that country. A visa is a document that is stamped on a person’s passport by an embassy. It names the kind of visit and says how long the person can stay. Sometimes, people need to go through an interview held at the embassy before they get a visa.
