Most organizations, such as the widely recognized Henley Passport Index, believe the strongest passports are the ones that allow their citizens to enter more countries without a visa. They rank Singapore as the most powerful passport in 2023 because it provides easy access to 194 countries.
But is this the best way to decide how strong a passport is? Global Citizen Solutions has developed a more detailed but slightly different approach. The Global Passport Index analyzes how desirable a country passport is, considering the following:
- Mobility: The travel benefits of the passport
- Investment and business potential: The nation’s economic growth
- Quality of life: How happy, comfortable, and accepted people are
According to their last ranking, Germany has the strongest passport in the world now, with high scores in all categories and a much higher Quality of Life score than Singapore.
