A passport is a document that proves your identity and your citizenship or nationality. It is issued by your government to you to allow you to prove these things when you travel.

A visa is an authorization by another nation to enter its territory. It is issued to you by the nation you wish to visit. Usually the visa is stamped or attached to the person's passport.

The visa typically defines the reasons you are to be admitted and the length of time you can stay. The reasons for issuing a visa are to allow the country to validate your identity and ensure that you are coming for lawful purposes and will only stay as long as the visa permits.

Visas can allow you to come for a few minutes (transit visa good while waiting for an onward connection) or stay forever (immigrant visa) or anything in between (student visa, tourist visa, temporary worker, etc.)

It is your government's request to the authorities of another government to guard and protect you whilst you travel in the foreign country. It also shows your citizenship and where the foreign country should send you if you don't behave yourself.

A visa is the foreign government's authorization for it's border agents to allow you to pass through to the foreign country once they've investigated you. It shows that you have formally requested permission to enter the foreign country.

It's no wonder your asking people to do your homework for you. By the looks of it. Passpoet? I have heard of passport and a poet


irish eyes
now it means that you have passed a background check that shows that you do not appear to have terrorist ties

that is your identity. Since your SS# only works for inside the US, you need another form of identification for entering other countries. As far as visa, I am not sure.
