Cyprus passport ranked 13th according to Henley Passport Index Q1 2021
The Cyprus passport has been ranked 13th in the world with respect to the number of destinations holders can travel to without a prior visa according to the latest report from Henley & Partners. This is the highest ranking for Cyprus on the same index since 2007.
Holders of a Cyprus passport can travel to 176 destinations visa-free, with Japan topping the list with 193.
There are 199 passports considered altogether spreading over a total of 110 rankings.
According to the Henley & Partners website:
“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.”
The H&P website allows users to search for their passport and see which countries allow for visa-free travel, or require a visa before travel.
