World's Most Powerful Passports by daylae(m): 10:02pm On Apr 18, 2015
These are the world's
most powerful
passports
A passport from a country on
good diplomatic terms with its
peers is a powerful tool,
allowing holders to travel
across borders with ease.
Financial firm Arton Capital,
which specializes in helping
wealthy individuals obtain
multiple citizenships,
sometimes through immigrant
investor programs, has put
together a ranking of the
world's most powerful
passports.
The ranking shows which
passports give holders the
most global mobility, based on
how many countries can be
visited without a visa, or by
getting one upon arrival.
Developed countries with
advanced economies fare the
best. Tied for first place are
U.S. and U.K. passports, which
give holders access to 147
countries.
Passports from the world's
most populous country, China,
offer quick access to 74
countries. Indian passport
holders aren't so lucky, with 59
easy destinations. A Russian
passport provides 98 country
options.
Here are the top-ranked
passports, followed by the
number of countries they
offer access to:
U.S., U.K. (147 countries
France, South Korea, Germany
(145
Sweden, Italy (144
Denmark, Singapore, Finland,
Japan, Luxembourg,
Netherlands (143
Switzerland (142
And the bottom-ranked
passports:

Central African Republic,
Kosovo (41
Equatorial Guinea, Bhutan,
Comoros, Burundi (40
Somalia, Eritrea (39
Afghanistan, Djibouti, Iraq,
