Rankings

Welcoming countries

Destinations ranked by how open they look in Entryora’s published visa-checker matrix — counting how many of our published passports can enter with visa-free, ETA, or eVisa access. This is not a quality-of-life, safety, or “best place to live” ranking.

Notice Matrix ranking only — not legal advice, not an immigration decision, and not a lifestyle or safety ranking

Methodology

For each checker destination, we count published passport rows (excluding citizen rows). Open score = visa-free + ETA + eVisa. Visa on arrival is shown separately and used only as a tie-break. Missing matrix rows are not counted as open.

The list only covers destinations and passports Entryora has published. Adding rows can change ranks.

What “welcoming” means here

Destinations are ranked by how many of Entryora’s published passports can enter with visa-free, ETA, or eVisa short-visit access in the checker matrix. This is not a quality-of-life, safety, cost-of-living, or “best place to live” ranking.

Open score methodology

For each destination, open score = visa-free + ETA + eVisa passport rows (citizen rows excluded). Visa on arrival appears in the breakdown and is used only as a tie-break. Missing matrix rows are not counted as open. Adding passports or destinations to Entryora’s data can change ranks even when laws are unchanged.

How to use the ranked list

Search for a destination. Review the breakdown counts (visa-free, ETA, eVisa, VOA, visa required). Open the destination hub when Entryora publishes one. Then confirm your passport on the visa checker — a high open score does not mean your nationality is included.

Passport Index vs welcoming countries

Passport Index ranks outbound mobility of passports. This page ranks inbound openness of destinations across our published passports. Passport compare lines up two to four documents. Always verify entry on the official government site before travel.
