The information we used for this ranking is according to the latest Henley port Index. The ranking is based on the number of destinations their holder can access without a prior visa. The ranking is based on exclusive data from the International Air Transport Association (IATA), which maintains the world’s largest and most accurate database of travel information.

This is how it is calculated:

For each travel destination, if no visa is required for port holders from a country or territory, then a score with value = 1 is created for that port. A score with value = 1 is also applied if port holders can obtain a visa on arrival, a visitor’s permit, or an electronic travel authority (ETA) when entering the destination. These visa-types require no pre-departure government approval, because of the specific visa-waiver programs in place.

Where a visa is required, or where a port holder has to obtain a government-approved electronic visa (e-Visa) before departure, a score with value = 0 is assigned. A score with value = 0 is also assigned if port holders need pre-departure government approval for a visa on arrival, a scenario we do not consider ‘visa-free’.

The total score for each port is equal to the number of destinations for which no visa is required (value = 1), under the conditions defined above.

In a nutshell, some ports are more powerful and hence offers more freedom.

Below are the world’s most powerful ports in 2018.

It’s cool you note that some positions have ties.

With the Japanese port, you can comfortably travel to 190 destinations around the world.

Duchess, Nigeria has never been great. It's a propaganda the military government and its civilian cronies drum into heads of Nigerians who are often too ignorant, to give us a false sense of superiority because of our large population.
