travel papers
Passport and visas
Travel papers are official documents that allow a person to cross international borders or move through controlled areas.
The term encompasses passports, visas, and various permits issued by governments or authorities, but often suggests temporary or emergency documentation rather than a standard passport.
In historical and wartime contexts, travel papers frequently appear in narratives of refugees, displaced persons, or those fleeing persecution.
