Definition
出访 (chūfǎng) specifically means an official visit to a foreign country or region, typically by a head of state, government official, or delegation. It is more formal and narrower than 访问 (general visit) and 拜访 (calling on a person), and unlike 视察 (inspection of work), it always involves traveling abroad.
