India with rest of the world. Maybe one day we will be the most powerful visa holders of the world. That day has already arrived. The Passport Index 2017 has given India the 81st place in a ranking of the world’s most powerful passports with a visa-free score of 46.
The report was released in the first half of January 2017 and it relies on cross-border access to national passports giving them a “visa-free score” that shows the number of countries a passport holder has access to without visa or with visa on arrival. Officially, this is the only real-time global ranking of the world’s passports.
The visa-score of 46 includes 21 countries were Indian citizens can travel without a visa and 25 countries where they can use the visa-on-arrival option. Many perceptive people around the world have a desire to improve security for their family and increase opportunities for their children, this desire transcends borders.
With many European countries now opening up and welcoming investors with attractive residency programs, having a second citizenship has never been easier, cheaper and more relevant than today.
According to the passport index, German is the strongest. The German passport lets you travel across 157 countries without a visa. They can travel to these countries without applying for a visa. This makes the people from the central European nations the most privileged passport holders.
This year’s index included a new list called “World’s most welcoming countries” being topped by 13 countries that don’t require any visa from passengers visiting their countries. Also, the latest Passport Index includes a new ''World Openness Score” (WOS) which tracks the progression of mobility freedom for citizens around the world. In 2016 the WOS indicated a figure of 17.925, while in 2017 the score went up to 17.948.
With numbers gradually increasing and countries this trend shows opening of borders with attractive visa policies and benefits. With globalization and ongoing immigration issues, the World Openness Score will be absolutely challenging.
Being recognized as the most powerful passport in South Asia as well. And deemed to be superior to help us through the trials and tribulations of life, and in particular the visa. India takes pride in making that visa free entry to 46 countries a feasible walk through.
