The latest Henley Passport Index for 2025 reveals a major shake-up in global travel freedom, with Singapore retaining its position as the world's most powerful passport, offering visa-free access to 193 destinations. Asian countries, particularly Japan and South Korea, continue to dominate the top spots, while traditional leaders like the US and UK have slipped further down the rankings. India made the most significant jump, climbing eight places to 77th, now granting its citizens visa-free or visa-on-arrival access to 59 countries. The rankings highlight a shift in global mobility, with Asian and some European nations gaining ground as Western passports lose relative strength. This trend reflects changing international relations and evolving visa policies worldwide.
