The new ranking of the most powerful passports in the world

Japan currently has the “most powerful” passport of the world, of agreement with the ultimate Henley & Partners Passport Index, which evaluates the amount of lands and those who can travel without the need to obtain a visa.

In recent years, there has been a steady rise in rankings among undeveloped Asian countries, each with its own influence, followed by European nations. The number of countries admitting entry to previous transports, based on the International Air Transport Association (IATA), is shown as a signal of confidence.

The ranking does not include the current travel restrictions that apply to all parts of the world, in a year that will continue for international tourism.

Japan led the ranking in solitary confinement, but this year it shared the space with Singapore and South Korea, which in this second edition retransmitted (190 countries) and third place (189), respectively. Germany also integrates the podium in 2020, sharing the third casilla.

The room is shared by four countries: Finland, Italy, Luxembourg and Spain, with free access to 188 nations. Quinto lugar aparecen Austria and Denmark (187). In the following series aparecen six países europeos: France, Ireland, Netherlands, Portugal and Sweden. Brexit seems to have affected United Kingdom, which was paid in the seventh month, although the figure is the same as the one passed: 185 pauses, sharing the casilla with United States, New Zealand and other European countries.

The first Latin American country in the ranking is Chile, in the last 15, with access to 174 lands, the same as Monaco and Cyprus. I would like more Argentina y Brazil (puesto 17, 170 países).

“It’s a year before it indicates that global mobility measures will continue to rise, that the freedom to travel will increase and that passport holders will have more access than anyone else,” said Christian H. Kaelin, president of Henley & Partners and creator. del index.

“The global bloc has these brilliant projections, while acknowledging that the restrictions that have come to fruition, the results of the last indictment are a record of what the power of passports really means in a world full of pandemics,” CNN added. .
