The high-ranking political figure known as the President of the Imperial Senate held a position of authority within the Galactic Empire, overseeing the operations of the Imperial Senate. Before its dissolution amidst the Galactic Civil War, this individual possessed the power to grant citizens passports, thereby enabling them to travel freely across all spaceports and star systems.
The role of the President of the Imperial Senate first appeared in the introductory remarks of The Star Wars Intergalactic Passport. The connection between this role and the Galactic Emperor remains uncertain, although the Emperor was, at least ostensibly, advised by the Imperial Senate.
