Part 2 of Doc 9303 defines the specifications for machine readable visas (MRV) which allow compatibility and global interchange using both visual (eye readable) and machine readable means. The specifications lay down standards for visas which can, where issued by a State and accepted by a receiving State, be used for travel purposes. The MRV shall, as a minimum, contain the data specified herein in a form that is legible both visually and by optical character recognition methods, as presented herein. Specifications are included for the discretionary expansion of the machine readable data capacity of the MRV beyond that defined for global interchange, as well as for machine-assisted identity confirmation of the rightful holder and MRV security features.
