Passport Value Index 2026 edition

The world's passports, ranked by what they actually do.

Most rankings count how many countries a passport opens visa-free. This one measures consequential security — the right to enter and remain, the protection and evacuation a state provides in a crisis, the obligations it imposes in return, and how resilient it is. Fifty passports, scored across six pillars. Tap any passport to see the breakdown.
