Henley Passport Index<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The Henley Passport Index<\/a> operates using exclusive data from the International Air Transport Association (IATA)<\/a>, widely recognised as the most comprehensive travel information database available. This ranking measures global mobility<\/strong> by calculating the number of destinations passport holders can access without obtaining a prior visa.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“The index provides critical insights into global mobility trends and has become an indispensable tool for both individual travellers and government policymakers,” explained a representative from Henley & Partners, which publishes the Global Mobility Report 2025<\/strong> alongside the index.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

With 19 years of historical data, the monthly-updated index serves as the standard reference for assessing where passports rank on the global mobility spectrum.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

According to the recently released Henley Passport Index, India’s passport<\/a> ranking has fallen to 81st position in 2025<\/strong>, down from 80th place in 2024. The index, considered the global standard for assessing passport strength, evaluates 199 different passports<\/strong> and their access to 227 travel destinations worldwide.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
