Passports are documents of identity which are issued in the name of the head of the state in favour of persons who wish to travel or sojourn in foreign countries. They contain a request to all persons who may be concerned to afford assistance and protection which the holder of the passport may stand in need. ... In addition to enabling its holder to leave his country and enter a foreign state, a passport implicitly confers upon the traveller the right to return to his own country. 1, record 2, English, - holder%20of%20a%20passport
