People who are granted permanent residency in a country are usually issued some sort of documentary evidence as legal proof of this status. In the past, many countries merely stamped the person's passport indicating that the holder was admitted as a permanent resident or that he/she was exempt from immigration control and permitted to work without restriction. Other countries would issue a photo ID card, place a visa sticker or certificate of residence in the person's passport, or issue a letter to confirm their permanent resident status.

The term "amended and restated" is used in corporate law to refer to an agreement or other document that has been amended one or more times in the past and is presented in its entirety (restated) including all amendments to date.

The purpose of the amended and restated agreement is to simplify reading of the document, as one does not need to read the original document side-by-side with all subsequent amendments. (Witnesseth)
