audit
In my experience the best translation is audit, especially if you're talking about a Quality System.
"Inspection visit" is kind of clunky, I wouldn't use it. At most "on-site inspection" if you want to use inspection.

That's not true. In quality systems the official word is AUDIT. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quality_audit

Jo Macdonald
: If this is quality assurance as your other question would seem to suggest it's definitely an audit.

inspection visit
There is nothing awkward about saying "inspection visit" although so long as there is no ambiguity in the remainder of the text, simply "inspection" might be even better (i.e. if it is self-evident that an inspection requires a visit).
