Our Mission
PassportScope provides comprehensive, up-to-date information on passport power rankings and visa-free travel access. We believe that access to accurate travel information empowers individuals to make informed decisions about global mobility.
Our platform tracks visa requirements for every passport in the world, helping travelers, expats, and global citizens understand their travel freedom and plan accordingly.
Methodology
Our passport rankings are based on objective data about visa requirements between countries. Here's how we calculate the mobility score:
Destinations where passport holders can enter without any visa or pre-approval. Full weight in mobility score.
Visas obtained at the point of entry. Included in mobility score as they require no pre-travel application.
Electronic Travel Authorization - quick online approval typically granted within minutes. Included in mobility score.
Electronic visas that require an online application process. Not included in mobility score but tracked for reference.
Traditional visa application required through embassy or consulate.
Data Updates
We update our database quarterly to reflect the latest changes in visa policies, bilateral agreements, and travel restrictions. Major changes are typically reflected within 48 hours of official announcements.
Our data sources include official government publications, IATA travel information, and verified reports from diplomatic missions worldwide.
