About the Henley Passport Index

Robust, reliable, and accurate

Explore the world

The ranking is based on exclusive data from the International Air Transport Association (IATA),
which maintains the world’s largest and most accurate database of travel information, and isenhanced by the Henley & Partners Research Department.

As well as discovering the strength of your own passport, www.henleyglobal.com/passport-index
allows you to compare your passport to others, find out the differences in visa-free access, andsee where your passport ranks regionally and globally.

The index’s scoring system was developed to give users a nuanced, practical, and reliable
overview of their passport’s power. Each passport is scored on the total number of destinations
that the holder can access visa-free. For each travel destination, if no visa is required, then a scoreof 1 is allocated for that passport. This also applies if passport holders can obtain a visa on arrival,
a visitor’s permit, or an electronic travel authority (ETA) upon entry.

www.henleyglobal.com/passport-index also gives you access to 18 years’ worth of historical data,so you can see how the strength of your passport has changed over the years and view the top
climbers and fallers on the index.

Where a visa is required, or where a passport holder must apply for a government-approved electronicvisa (e-Visa) before departure, a score of 0 is assigned. The same applies if they need pre-departure
approval for a visa on arrival.

About Investment Migration

Residence and citizenship by investment programs
enable nations to grant residence or citizenship rights
to individuals in exchange for a substantial investment.
Citizenship by investment refers to the process
whereby qualified and carefully vetted candidates are
granted full citizenship in exchange for their significant
economic contribution to the passport-issuing state.

Residence by investment refers to a similar process,but candidates in this case are granted temporary
residence, which can be extended to permanent
residence or, in some cases, citizenship at a later stage.
For individuals, the key benefits of holding analternative passport include expanded travel mobility,
access to business and educational opportunities on a
global scale, ease of asset diversification, and improved
safety and security in a rapidly changing world.
For host countries, the foreign direct investment
secured through investment migration programs
creates both sovereign and societal value. Debt-freeliquidity is injected into the economy, resulting in
additional capital flows both to the public sector— encouraging fiscal autonomy, diversifying theeconomy, and creating employment opportunities —and to the private sector, in the form of investments
in existing enterprises, infrastructure, start-ups, andreal estate.
More than 100 countries have residence andcitizenship by investment legislation in place, andover 60% of EU member states have active programs.
