Every passport, ranked by the world it opens.

We score access, allowed stay, and destination value — not just border count. A 90-day visa-free stay beats 14 days, while GDP and international arrivals weight how much each destination matters. One public formula, 199 passports.

Three numbers, one score

The formula is public — anyone can recompute any score. No panels, no opinions, no paid placements.

Access

Doors, weighted honestly

Visa-free counts in full. An eTA is minutes online; an eVisa is a real application with real refusals. Each entry class carries its own published weight.

Visa-free 1.00
eTA 0.92 · VoA 0.80
eVisa 0.55 · Visa 0.00

Stay

The days angle

Ninety days is the global gold standard; two weeks is a layover. Every destination’s allowed stay feeds the score — because staying is the point of going.

30–59 0.70 · 15–29 0.60
≤14 d 0.50

Reach

What the doors are worth

Opening Japan is not opening a microstate. Destinations are weighted by a public GDP and travel-volume formula, floored so every country still counts.

w = 0.4 + 0.3·GDP + 0.3·travel
Floor 0.4 · ceiling 1.0

Evidence is shown with the row

Corroborated dual rows are distinct from rows with a clickable retained provenance URL. Other rows stay visible as needs verification; not every row has a deciding link. The matrix is re-checked monthly.

Days max between re-checks

How is this different from Henley or Passport Index?

Those indexes count destinations. This one also scores how long you may stay (days-weighted) and how much of the world each destination represents — and publishes the formula so you can recompute any score yourself.

Where does the data come from?

The matrix combines independent source datasets. Corroborated rows and rows with a retained clickable official provenance URL are marked separately; the remaining rows are shown as needing verification.

Do residence permits change what a passport can do?

Substantially — a Schengen residence permit alone unlocks 28 countries. That’s the Residence board, and the My Documents view in the Countly app combines both.

Countly · the day-counting app

Your days are the other half of the story.

Countly counts the days you spend in each country — the 183-day rule, Schengen 90/180, and the presence rules that keep a residence permit alive.
