The latest Henley Passport Index reveals a major shakeup in global passport power, with Singapore retaining its position as the world's most powerful passport, granting visa-free access to 193 destinations.
Asian countries, including Japan and South Korea, dominate the top ranks, while traditional leaders like the US and UK have dropped to their lowest positions ever. India made the largest jump, climbing eight spots to 77th place, now allowing its citizens visa-free or visa-on-arrival access to 59 countries. The rankings highlight shifting global mobility trends, with countries like the UAE and Vietnam also making significant gains.
Meanwhile, Canada continues to outperform the US, and several European nations remain strong, though not all are rising equally.
