Open full profileAdvisor interpretation
Whether the target route is residence, citizenship, skilled migration, or corporate mobility.
Whether the family can satisfy budget, source-of-funds, document, and physical-presence rules.
Whether the mobility gain is worth the timeline, tax, risk, and compliance obligations.
A high-ranking passport can still be the wrong route if source of funds, family eligibility, minimum stay, tax exposure, or sanction-screening risk does not fit the client profile.
Entry rules for every passport are taken from Wikipedia’s “Visa requirements for … citizens” articles, which cite each destination’s own rules. They are licensed CC BY-SA 4.0; the scores and lists in this index are adapted from them and shared under the same licence. How the index is built.
Entry rules change, sometimes overnight, and can depend on the purpose of the trip and the visas you already hold. Confirm with the destination’s embassy before you book. A ranking is not legal advice, and an advisor verifies the current rules before any residence or citizenship decision.
