Change language:
The Henley Passport Index was shared a couple of days ago. We reported that it contains the Hungarian travel permit and it is in a very illustrious position. The index found that Hungary’s travel license is the world’s ninth best, allowing you to enter 184 countries visa-free. The strongest is the Japanese, which enables citizens to go to 193 destinations. However, even that has Hungarian relevance.
Regularly updated list of passports
According to index.hu, a Hungarian IT security company developed the Japanese passport allowing locals to enter 193 countries without having a visa. The Hungarian firm is an internationally acknowledged enterprise and its CEO and founder talked about the issue to index.hu.
The London-based Henley & Partners regularly compiles a list of the world’s strongest passports. The Henley Passport Index is the original, authoritative ranking of all the world’s passports according to the number of destinations their holders can access without a prior visa. The index is based on exclusive data from the International Air Transport Association (IATA) – the largest, most accurate travel information database – and enhanced by Henley & Partners’ research team, their website wrote.
With historical data spanning 18 years, the Henley Passport Index is the only one of its kind based on exclusive data from the International Air Transport Authority (IATA). The index includes 199 different passports and 227 different travel destinations. Updated quarterly, the Henley Passport Index is considered the standard reference tool for global citizens and sovereign states when assessing where a passport ranks on the global mobility spectrum, they added.
