Visa (document) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia (1361 words)
Visas are associated with merely seeking the permission to enter (or exit) a coutnry, and thus distinct from actual formal permission for an alien to enter and remain in the country.
Visas can also be single-entry, which means the visa is cancelled as soon as the holder leaves the country, double-entry, or multiple-entry, permitting multiple entries into the country with the same visa.
Overstaying a visa's validity period is considered illegal immigration and the offender may be fined, deported, or even fllisted from entering the country again.
VISA (credit card) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia (522 words)
Visa is a brand of credit card and debit card operated by the Visa International Service Association of San Francisco, California, USA, an economic joint venture of 21,000 financial institutions that issue and market Visa products.
Visa International itself is a relatively small organisation that is responsible for managing the global brand, developing globally interoperable standards and establishing the fundamental rules (Operating Regulations) that govern the payment relationships between its member banks globally.
The blue and gold in Visa's logo were originally chosen to represent the blue sky and golden-colored hills of California, where Bank of America was founded.
