The index annually ranks 199 passports of the world by the number of countries that their holders can travel to without requiring a visa. The number of countries that a specific passport can access becomes its visa-free "score". In collaboration with the International Air Transport Association (IATA), and using official data from their global database, Henley & Partners has analysed the visa regulations of almost all the world's countries and territories since 2006.
