A 1954 Convention travel document is a travel document issued to a stateless person by a signatory to the 1954 Convention Relating to the Status of Stateless Persons. The cover bears the words Travel Document in English and French (and often in the language of the issuing state) along with the date of the convention, but does not bear the two black stripes appearing in the upper right corner of the front cover of refugee travel documents.
Famous quotes containing the words convention, travel and/or document:

—Ezra Pound (18851972)
“The travel writer seeks the world we have lostthe lost valleys of the imagination.”
—Alexander Cockburn (b. 1941)
“What is a diary as a rule? A document useful to the person who keeps it, dull to the contempory who reads it, invaluable to the student, centuries afterwards, who treasures it!”
—Ellen Terry (18481928)
