The world's most powerful passports
New Ranking
According to the Passport Index, holders of a passport issued in the United Arab Emirates can visit 167 countries without needing to obtain a prior visa. Having just added four new countries to the list, this makes it the most powerful passport in the world. As our chart shows, a fair share of these countries do still require a visa on arrival, meaning that purely in terms of simply walking through passport control, Singapore passport holders have the easiest time in the most countries.
