The latest Henley Passport Index reveals a major shakeup in global passport power, with Asian countries like Singapore, Japan, and South Korea dominating the top spots for visa-free travel.
Singapore retains its crown as the world's most powerful passport, granting access to 193 destinations, while the US passport has dropped to its lowest-ever 10th place. India made the biggest leap, climbing from 85th to 77th, now allowing visa-free or visa-on-arrival access to 59 countries. Meanwhile, European nations continue to perform strongly, but some, like the UK and Australia, have slipped in the rankings.
The index highlights a growing mobility gap, with some countries gaining unprecedented travel freedom while others, such as Pakistan, remain near the bottom.
