What is a visa and what kind of visa does a tourist visa belong to?

Visa refers to the procedure of endorsement and seal of passports or other travel documents held by domestic or foreign citizens by the sovereign organs of a country to show that they are allowed to enter, exit or transit. It can also be said that it is an endorsement certificate issued to them. Generally speaking, a visa is a document issued by a country's entry-exit administration (such as immigration bureau or its embassy or consulate abroad) to approve the entry of foreign citizens.

A tourist visa is an ordinary visa.
