The Japanese passport has been
ranked the most powerful passport in the world with citizens enjoying
visa-free/visa-on-arrival access to 190 destinations.
According to the Henley Passport
Index which depends on data provided by the International Air Transport
Authority (IATA), Nigeria gained visa-free access (net-free access) to three
new countries, bring its visa-free access to 47 countries.
Speaking on the methodology of
the ranking, Henley said: “For each travel destination, if no visa is required
for passport holders from a country or territory, then a score with value = 1
is created for that passport.
“A score with value = 1 is also
applied if passport holders can obtain a visa on arrival, a visitor’s permit,
or an electronic travel authority (ETA) when entering the destination. These
visa-types require no pre-departure government approval, because of the
specific visa-waiver programs in place.
“Where a visa is required, or
where a passport holder has to obtain a government-approved electronic visa (e-Visa)
before departure, a score with value = 0 is assigned. A score with value = 0 is
also assigned if passport holders need pre-departure government approval for a
visa on arrival, a scenario we do not consider ‘visa-free’.”
