This passport classification neither requires nor generalizes that separate identity-card facility.","This policy does not cover a laissez-passer, refugee or alien travel document, diplomatic, official, service, public-affairs, temporary, or other special passport/document.","Visa dispensation is not a residence authorization and does not authorize paid work.
