Singapore retains its crown, offering visa-free access to 193 destinations, while Japan and South Korea also rank highly. Meanwhile, traditional leaders like the US and UK continue to fall, now ranking 10th and 6th respectively. India made the largest leap, climbing eight spots to 77th, granting its citizens visa-free entry to 59 countries.
