Methodology

The data in the Henley Global Mobility Report 2024 July is derived from the Henley Passport Index, the Henley Openness Index, and the Henley Passport Power Index.

Henley Passport Index

The Henley Passport Index is the original, authoritative ranking of 199 world passports, assessing the travel freedom granted to citizens based on the number of destinations accessible without a prior visa. The complete methodology is available here.

In the context of trade and travel blocs, the score signifies the average number of destinations, expressed as a percentage of the potential total of 226 that passport holders within the respective bloc can visit without the need for a prior visa.

Henley Openness Index

The Henley Openness Index is the authoritative ranking of 199 countries/territories worldwide according to the number of nationalities each allows to cross its borders without a prior visa. This index offers valuable insights into a country’s global openness and its capacity to attract international visitors for both tourism and trade. The complete methodology is detailed here.

In the context of trade and travel blocs, the score denotes the average number of nationalities within a specific bloc — expressed as a percentage of the potential total of 199 — that are permitted to cross borders without a prior visa.

Henley Passport Power Index

Henley Passport Power evaluates countries based on the percentage of global GDP to which their passport holders have visa-free access. The maximum score is 100, signifying unrestricted access to 100% of global GDP. The complete methodology is available here.

In the context of trade and travel blocs, the score indicates the average percentage of global GDP that passport holders from countries within a specific bloc can access without the need for a prior visa.

Disclaimer

The information provided in the index is not intended to be binding, and visa information must be verified with a travel agent or embassy representative before travel arrangements are made.
