How to identify the authenticity of a passport

With so many passports from various countries and some unusual entry and exit documents, do you really understand border inspection? It is said that there is a country that regards the Taiwan Province provincial certificate as China passport only because there is a China, and developed countries have good anti-counterfeiting, but in some backward countries, it is easy to forge it, isn't it? I wonder if passport information will be networked globally. Is it because it is based on a visa to prevent forgery? Or printing paper? Of course, there are many identification methods you don't know. Next, I'll tell you how to tell the authenticity of a passport. Through this article, I believe it will be helpful for you to learn to identify the authenticity of your passport.

1. How to tell the authenticity of a passport?

There are several ways to check the authenticity of a passport:

First, go to the visa office in person and ask the visa officer for identification;

The second is to compare with other people's same visas;

The third is to carefully check the visa content word by word. Generally, forged visas are rough, illegible, with scrawled signatures and inconspicuous seals, and even have wrong visa pages (generally, visas of a country are uniformly fixed on the visa pages).

Second, how to identify ordinary visas?

Ordinary visas are generally issued to foreigners holding ordinary passports. According to the reasons why foreigners apply to China, they are divided into eight categories, which are marked with corresponding Chinese phonetic alphabet:

D visa is issued to people who have settled in China;

Z-shaped visas are issued to people who come to China for work or employment and their accompanying families;

X visa is issued to those who have studied, studied and practiced in China for more than six months;

F visa is issued to those who are invited to visit China, study, give lectures, do business, have scientific and cultural exchanges, and have short-term study and internship for no more than six months; Among them, groups of more than 5 people coming to China can issue group visit visas;

L-shaped visas are issued to people who come to China to travel, visit relatives or enter the country for other private reasons; Group tourist visas can be issued to groups of more than 5 people to travel to China;

G-shaped visas are issued to people passing through China;

C visas are issued to crew members of international trains, crew members of international aircraft, seafarers on international ships and their accompanying families who perform crew, aviation and shipping tasks;

J- 1 visas are issued to foreign journalists who come to China permanently, and J-2 visas are issued to foreign journalists who come to China temporarily for interviews.

When authenticating a passport, we should not only confirm the basic contents such as nationality, identity, passport type and validity period, but also pay attention to the "remarks" marked on the passport to identify the authenticity and legality of the passport.
