Dear MEL Topic Readers,

Henley Index: 2 Asian passports now world’s most powerful

What does the power of a passport mean? Can a certain passport holder get a discount for shopping in other countries? One of the privileges certain passport holders have is visa waiver. It allows passport holders of specific countries to enter the country for certain purposes, such as traveling, visiting, or business for a limited time without obtaining a visa. Most of the 193 UN member states exempt passport holders of preferred countries from their visa programs. Then, which passport holders are regarded safe, harmless and beneficial to other countries?

According to one of the several indexes created by financial firms to rank global passports, Japan and Singapore passports have more visa-free entries than any other passport, closely followed by Western countries like Germany, Denmark, Finland, France, Italy, Sweden, and Spain, and another Asian state, South Korea.

Enjoy reading the article and check how many countries you can visit without a visa.
