2017 Global Passport Value Ranking

The value of a passport is a sign of a country’s wealth and openness. Otherwise, other countries will not want to open entry and exit to you unconditionally, so the value of passports varies from country to country. The following is the ranking of the most valuable passports in the world in 2017.

Not long ago, the global ranking of valuable passports was updated again! The German passport, which has always been ranked first, has finally been surpassed!

The legendary German passport can travel to 158 countries without any obstacles. The visa-free policy allows people in the country to leave as they wish~ But just recently, Germany’s dominance was suddenly taken away by an Asian country. .

On the foreign website passportindex, the valuable ranking of each country’s passport (determined by the visa-free index, including visa-free countries and visa-on-arrival countries) and the list of visa-free countries in the visa-on-arrival list will be updated from time to time.

The brighter the area, the greater the possibility of leaving.

The Asian country that surpassed Germany’s record of 158 visa-free countries this time is Singapore, ranking first with a visa-free index of 159.

The mentioned China ranks neither at the top nor at the bottom, ranking 66th. Sierra Leone, Ghana, and Cuba, which are tied with us at 66th place, also have 60 visa-free countries.

Although the Chinese passport has 60 visa-free countries (including visa on arrival). However, many are unreliable. For example, some countries do not have airports or direct flights to China, etc.
