How Do We Rank It?

passportreports.com's AI-supported ranking model ranks passports by mobility score, a metric that combines visa-free entry, visa on arrival, and electronic travel authorization access. When scores are tied, it first compares the number of visa-free destinations, then destinations accessible with electronic travel authorization, and finally visa-on-arrival destinations.

About Chile

Chile stretches along the southwestern coast of South America, bordered by the Andes to the east and the Pacific to the west. Its long, narrow shape creates diverse landscapes from the Atacama Desert in the north to Patagonian glaciers in the south. The country is known for its dramatic geography, including volcanoes, lakes, and fjords. This varied terrain defines Chile's regional identity and influences local lifestyles.

Chilean cities blend modern architecture with historic neighborhoods, especially in Santiago and Valparaíso. Daily life often revolves around family, extended lunch breaks, and a strong café culture. The country celebrates a mix of indigenous Mapuche traditions and Spanish colonial heritage. Music and dance, particularly cueca, remain central to community gatherings.

Chile is a stable democracy with a strong economy compared to regional neighbors. It maintains active trade relationships, especially with Asia and other Pacific Rim countries. The country is a frequent participant in multilateral forums on environmental and economic issues. Chile's location makes it a gateway for travel between South America and the Pacific.
