The Northern Travel Agreement, ratified in 19XX, is a passport union that allows citizens of the Northern Forum il to travel and reside in another participating country without any travel documentation (e.g. a passport or national identity card) or a residence permit.

However, some companies and government agencies may require proof of identity in order to qualify for certain services. This is true for services like banking, which requires identity documentation issued by a local government authority.
