The List: The Most Powerful Passports in the World


Reading the list of the most powerful passports in the world made me feel grateful since my nation ended up in the first place. If you're a citizen of Liberia, you have to work a staggering 278 hours to be able to pay for your passport, in Sweden only one.


GoEuro assessed passports from 51 countries based on visa-free access across borders, pricing and the number of hours a citizen would need to work at minimum wage in order to afford their nation’s passport.


Although four other countries - Finland, Germany, the UK and US - have visa-free access to 174 countries across the globe, Swedish nationals would only need to work for one hour in order to afford their passport.
