This Passport Is Now the World’s Most Powerful

Global advisory firm Arton Capital's Passport Index ranks countries' passports according to the cross-border access they bring, assigning a "visa-free score" based on the number of countries a passport holder can visit without a visa, or with a visa on arrival.

It just beat last year's top passport, Singapore.

The UAE "has surpassed all expectations after accomplishing this achievement", the outlet said. Passports from Singapore allow entry to 127 countries visa-free and entry to 39 countries with a visa upon arrival, while German passports allow entry into 126 countries visa-free and entry into 40 countries with a visa upon arrival.

The ranking has a rival, however, and the two disagree on specific criteria, resulting in variance in the most powerful passports.

The most powerful passports in the world

Abu Dhabi Crown Prince Shaikh Mohammed Bin Zayed Al Nahyan said on social media, "thanks to Allah Almighty, the UAE passport has been ranked 1st globally, an achievement which reflects our right approach and future vision".

Australia was ranked 7th at 161 countries.

The ranking is a combined score of how many countries a passport offers visa-free entry and visa upon arrival to, as well as the number of countries where visas are required.

The Singapore passport also came in second in the Henley Passport Index's fourth-quarter update which was released in October.
