How this is counted

We count a destination as reachable without a visa in advance if the passport gets in visa-free, on arrival, or with an electronic travel authorisation (ETA/eTA/ESTA). eVisas are NOT counted — an eVisa is a visa you apply for before you fly. Data is a Passport Index snapshot plus a hand-maintained correction layer; every correction cites a government source. Checked 2026-02-17.
