Showing the top 50 of 199 passports.

“=” 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.

About this ranking

How much of the most developed world a passport opens: the share of destinations with very high human development — a UN Human Development Index of 0.800 or above, 74 destinations in 2023 — that its holders can visit without applying for a visa in advance. The passport’s own country is excluded.

In our current data, partly verified (the rest from public visa data as of 17 Feb 2026), Australia, New Zealand, South Korea share first place with 98.6%.

Coverage. UNDP Human Development Index for 2023 (Human Development Report 2025, CC BY 3.0 IGO), retrieved 30 Sept 2026. Covers 193 of 199 destinations; no 2023 data for Kosovo, Macao, Monaco, North Korea, Taiwan, Vatican City — these are left out of the calculation rather than counted as outside the group.
