FULL LIST: Nigerian passport ranks among worst globally

The Nigerian passport has been ranked as the 10th worst travel document worldwide, according to VisaGuide’s World Passport Index.

The ranking, which uses the Destination Significance Score (DSS) for assessing and ranking the passports of countries and territories, places Nigeria at number 191 out of 199 countries.

As of April, the Nigerian passport was ranked above only North Korea, Iraq, Libya, Sudan, Pakistan, Afghanistan, Syria, and Somalia.

The report added that the factors that contributed to this decline include visa-free access, diplomatic relations, and security concerns.

Other factors are visa-free travel, electronic travel authorisation, visa on arrival, electronic visa (e-visa), embassy or other government-approved visas, passport-free travel, and banned entry.

According to the ranking, the Singaporean passport is the strongest passport in the world, with a score of 91.06 as of April 2024. It is followed by the Italian, Spanish, French, and German passports respectively, to complete the top-five list of strongest passports for 2024.
