CNN —In a big shakeup of a quarterly ranking of the world’s most powerful passports, an unprecedented six countries are tied in the top spot for the hottest travel documents for 2024.
The United States and Canada, meanwhile, are tied in seventh place, along with Hungary, with visa-free access to 188 destinations.
“The average number of destinations travelers are able to access visa-free has nearly doubled from 58 in 2006 to 111 in 2024,” says Kaelin.
Portugal is at No.4 on the Henley Passport Index and Arton Capital's Passport Index.
