Mobility
Passport mobility map
This is the familiar measure, mapped: pure mobility, how far a passport reaches without applying for a visa first. It colors every country by the pure-mobility pillar of the Lucky Nomads Passport Index, a Henley-style breadth count of destinations reachable visa-free, on arrival, or with a light electronic authorization, scaled to 100. Compare this map with the passport power map to see where raw mobility and livable reach diverge. Hover a country for its exact score.

Methodology
The pure-mobility score counts the destinations a passport enters without a prior visa, including free movement, visa-free entry, visa on arrival, and electronic travel authorizations, then scales the count to a 0 to 100 range. It deliberately mirrors the Henley definition so you can compare it against our livability-weighted score. The map colors countries by quintile within the full pool of passports. It is recomputed from our bilateral visa access matrix on a regular cadence.
Frequently asked questions
Is this the same as the Henley index?
It uses the same definition of visa-free reach, so it is directly comparable. We show it on purpose, next to our livability-weighted score, so you can see where the two diverge.
What access types count toward mobility?
Free movement, visa-free entry, visa on arrival, and electronic travel authorizations all count. An eVisa you must apply for before departure does not count here.
Why does a country differ between this map and passport power?
Pure mobility counts breadth of travel. Passport power weights livability and the right to reside, so a travel-strong but settle-poor passport ranks lower on power.
Where can I see the full ranking?
Open /passport-index for the complete list, with both the livability-weighted score and the pure-mobility score side by side.
Which passports currently lead the Passport mobility map?
As of the latest computed scores, the top of the Passport mobility map is Malaysia (100 / 100), Singapore (99.4 / 100), and Croatia (98.9 / 100). The full ordered ranking of every passport is on our /passport-index page.
