PassportAccess Index2026 MODEL
THE WORLD, WITH FEWER BARRIERS

Global passport ranking.

Where you can go matters. So does how easily you can get there.

How we measure access
A DIFFERENT WAY TO SEE PASSPORT ACCESS

More than a country count.

We weight destinations by their international visitor numbers, then account for the ease of entry. Restrictions in heavily visited destinations have a bigger effect on the score.
