The world’s most powerful passports ranked: UAE holds steady while Ukraine moves up – The National

The release of the latest Henley Passport Index highlights the impact the current conflict in Ukraine is having on travel freedom and mobility.

The index, which ranks the world’s passports according to the number of destinations their holders can access without a prior visa, is compiled using official data from the International Air Transport Association.

There was little change in the top 10 most powerful passports compared to the last ranking, which was released in January. Japan and Singapore continue to share the number one spot in the ranking, with passport holders from both countries able to access 192 destinations around the world visa-free.
