India has recently seen a surge in its passport ranking in the year 2020. It has jumped up to the 84th position in the Henley Passport Index. This is a huge achievement for the country as it was ranked 86th in 2019.
The Henley Passport Index ranks passports according to the number of countries their holders can travel to without requiring a visa. India's passport now grants access to 58 countries and territories, including all of the major European countries, most of the Caribbean islands, and several countries in Asia, Africa, and South America.
Looking at this positive trajectory, it is expected that India will further rise in the rankings in the coming years. According to the latest estimates, the country is expected to reach the 75th position in the passport rankings in the year 2023.
This will be a major milestone for India, as it will be one of the top 10 most powerful passports in the world. This will open up tremendous opportunities for Indian citizens, as they will be able to travel to many more countries without the need for a visa.
What’s more, Indian citizens can also look forward to a host of other benefits such as visa-on-arrival and other visa-free travel arrangements. This will make it easier and more convenient for them to travel to their desired destinations.
Overall, India's rising passport ranking is a great sign for the country and its citizens. It will open up a world of opportunities and make travelling much easier. We can only hope that the trend continues, and India's ranking continues to rise in the coming years.
