Henley Passport Index: Singapore is Top & Trump's US Slips to 10th | Firstpost America
The American passport is no longer the world's most powerful travel document. According to the Henley Passport Index, it has slipped to 10th place, offering visa-free access to 180 destinations—behind 36 countries due to tied rankings. Singapore tops the list with access to 192 destinations, while the UAE has emerged as a major success story through sustained diplomacy. Experts say passport strength reflects geopolitical influence and international partnerships. The U.S.'s relatively restrictive visa policy, ranked 73rd on the Henley Openness Index, may be limiting reciprocity. The report also highlights widening global travel inequality, with Afghanistan ranking last.Cary Johnston brings you the details on Firspost America.TIME STAMPS:
