A passport of a citizen of the world is a document thatis issued by the private organization World Service Authority, founded in the 1950s by American Harry Davis. But it can be called an official document with a big stretch - this passport is actually recognized by only six African countries, such as Tanzania and Burkina Faso. So, to cross the border, even to leave your country, with only a passport of a citizen of the world, will not work.
And immediately the question arises as to why and what is neededThis document, if it is not valid in most countries of the world. To get an answer, one should refer to the history of the appearance of the passport of the world: the founder of the WSA society, Harry Davies was a pacifist, and therefore expressed the idea that the whole world should unite in order to avoid future wars. And it was he who came up with the passport of a citizen of the world who was called upon to replace all existing official documents. Harry Davis himself burned his American passport and refused to be a US citizen, after which he traveled only with the passport of the world, for which he spent almost 10 years in prisons of different countries for violating the laws of immigration. And the organization WSA began selling these passports for a nominal fee of $ 5, and sometimes gave out free of charge, if it was necessary. With the help of the passport of a citizen of the world, many refugees from Africa and Afghanistan were saved from the hunger and horrors of the war - they were represented by employees of international organizations, and the booklet with inscriptions in seven languages of the world looked quite convincing for semi-literate frontier guards. Therefore, at present obtaining a world passport is more a statement about joining the society of people who seek to unite all countries and peoples.
Many confuse the passport of the world and the UN passport - the secondis issued only to employees of diplomatic missions of the United Nations, and, as a matter of fact, is a pass. But in fact, they can be used as a passport, and it gives the right to visa-free entry into some countries, and in most countries a visa is issued upon immediate request. Only an employee of this organization can get a UN passport, and although recently such documents have appeared on sale, but they are unlikely to be real.
In order to obtain a passport of a citizen of the world,you will have to pay - the amount will depend on the chosen validity period of the document, approximately from 40 to 200 US dollars. But this is official, but resellers can offer to buy a document from 300 to 2000 US dollars. And the issued document will be real, they will simply assume the functions of intermediaries, for which they will take their commission. The passport of the world can be issued by any person who is not on the international wanted list. It takes 1-2 months for registration.
