Economic Reach Ranking

How much of the world economy a passport opens: the share of GDP (at purchasing power parity) in destinations its holders can visit without applying for a visa in advance. The passport’s own country is excluded. In our current data, not yet verified (as of 17 Feb 2026), South Korea leads with 96.3%.

Experimental. World Bank GDP data for 2024 (World Development Indicators, CC BY 4.0), retrieved 27 Sept 2026. Covers 187 of 199 destinations; no 2024 data for Cuba, Eritrea, Liechtenstein, Monaco, North Korea, San Marino, South Sudan, Syria, Taiwan, Vatican City, Venezuela, Yemen — these are left out of the calculation rather than counted as zero.

“=” marks a shared rank: passports with equal scores share a place, and the next place counts every passport ahead (1, 2, 2, 4). Entry restrictions are shown separately and don't lower the score.
