Safe-conduct
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Safe-conduct signifies the security given by authority of a government to a stranger for his quietly coming into and passing out of the territories over which the government has jurisdiction or control. A safe conduct differs from a passport in that the former is usually given to enemies and the latter to friends, neutrals or citizens.
The term safe-conduct is also used to mean the document authorizing this security.[1]
