Laissez-passer
A laissez-passer is a travel document issued by a national government or an international treaty organization. When issued by a national government a laissez-passer is often for one-way travel to the issuing country. When issued by an international treaty organization it is often for employee travel on official business.
Some national governments issue laissez-passers to their own nationals as emergency passports. Others issue them to people who are stateless, unable to obtain a passport from their own government or whose government is not recognized by the issuing country.
