Where can your passport actually take you?

Pick any of 209 passports and the whole world is recoloured by one question: what do you need to get in? Green means you just turn up. Yellow and amber mean a form or an application online. Light red means an embassy appointment. Dark red means you would be turned away at the border. And everywhere you can simply enter, it tells you how long you may stay.

What you can do with it

209 passports, 263 destinations

Every ordinary national passport, plus the odd ones — British National (Overseas), the Estonian and Latvian non-citizen documents, the Sovereign Military Order of Malta, and the passports of Abkhazia, Kosovo, Palestine, Taiwan and Northern Cyprus. 47,095 passport-to-country rules in all.

How long you can stay

Green on most maps is a single flat colour. Here it is split by how long you actually get — 30 days in one place, 180 in another, unlimited where freedom of movement applies. Click a stay length to light up only those countries.

The fine print

24,800 conditions pulled straight from the source: which airports an eVisa is valid at, which stamps in your passport will get you turned around, where an ID card will do instead, where the 90 days is really 90 days in any 180.

The ranking, honestly

A live leaderboard of the strongest passports — switch between counting everything that needs no visa in advance and the stricter visa-free and visa-on-arrival only. Ranked over a fixed set of 194 sovereign states, because the source lists dependencies very unevenly and counting them would rank a passport partly on how thorough its editor was.

Compare two passports

Hold any two side by side and see exactly which doors each one opens that the other does not — the question every dual national actually has.

Where the data comes from

Built by parsing the English Wikipedia articles “Visa requirements for X citizens” — 214 of them — which are themselves compiled from IATA Timatic and government immigration sites. The parsing is a script, not a copy-paste, so the whole dataset can be rebuilt from scratch in a few minutes; a refresh is intended every six to twelve months. Individual entries were then spot-checked against destination governments’ own immigration pages.

Please read this before you book anything. Visa policy changes constantly and sometimes overnight — a country can suspend visa-free entry, launch an eTA, or close a border with days of notice. Everything here is “last known”, not “guaranteed”. It assumes an ordinary tourist passport; diplomatic, service and emergency documents are different, and so are your nationality’s dual-citizenship rules. Stated stay lengths are the maximum a tourist is normally granted and are often conditional on onward tickets, funds or insurance. Always confirm with the destination’s embassy or your airline before you travel.
