Passports issued by these countries grant visa-free travel to destinations around the globe. European Union EU countries make up the bulk of the top-ranked passports.
Italian, Finnish, Luxembourgish, and Spanish passports share 3th place, while Austrian and Danish passports tie for 4th. French, Irish, Dutch, Portuguese, and Swedish passports are co-ranked 5th. There are relatively few countries with visa requirements for Americans. US passport holders can visit destinations visa-free. Similarly, visa requirements for British citizens are few and far between, with no visa required in advance for countries and territories. Meanwhile, Australian and Canadian passports are tied as the 8th strongest passports in the world, allowing access to destinations without a visa.

Afghanistan has the weakest passport in the world by travel freedom.

Of these, many still require the traveler to apply for a visa on arrival. Iraqi passports are only just above those issued by Afghanistan in the HPI rankings, allowing entry to 28 destinations without getting a visa prior to the trip.
Syria, Pakistan, and Yemen round out the bottom 5 in , with 29, 31, and 33 visa-free destinations, respectively.

India, which held the 84th rank last year, fell down to the 90th position, with its passport holders allowed to travel visa-free to 58 countries. India shares the rank with Tajikistan and Burkina Faso. Many countries in the global south have relaxed their borders in a concerted effort to revive their economies but there has been very little reciprocity from countries in the global north, which have enforced some of the most stringent inbound Covidrelated travel restrictions.
Even fully vaccinated travelers from countries at the lower end of the Henley Passport Index remain locked out of most of the developed world.
Japan, Singapore Score 2.
