It stand for "Visual Inspection Programme", and it means a dive professional taking the valve off the tank and inspecting inside to check for cracks or contamination. It is different from the hydrostatic testing that tanks are required to undergo every 5 years, in that the inspection is purely visual.

In the US and Canada this is normally done every year.

In Europe it is normally done every two and a half years.
