Passport trends.
See which passports moved, and which destinations drove the change.
Each historical year uses its own reported full-year arrivals, published before or after year-end. The same destinations and compatible visitor definitions are used throughout. No older-year substitutions or population estimates are included.
December visa snapshots still need checks through 31 December. Before 2025, electronic authorizations and e-visas were grouped together. Recorded scores use the e-visa score; ranges show the possible effect of separating ETA. Apparent access gains may include data corrections.
These sample ranks differ from the main ranking across all 199 destinations. “Current” uses mid-2026 rules and the same reported 2025 weights as End 2025.
