Latvia Passport Index 2026: Passport Ranking and Visa-Free Travel

The Latvia passport ranking uses 173 as the mobility score and shows the global position as 23rd. It combines visa-free access, visa on arrival and eTA, while visa-required destinations are listed separately.

Visa-free access means eligible Latvia passport holders may enter selected destinations without arranging a visa before travel. The current visa-free count is 118, subject to passport validity, purpose of travel and border procedures.

The visa on arrival count for Latvia is 45. It refers to destinations where travelers may request entry permission at arrival, depending on local forms, fees, eligibility rules and travel conditions.

The eTA count for Latvia is 10. An eTA is a digital travel authorization required by some destinations before arrival and should be read separately from visa-free entry and visa-required travel.

The visa-required count for Latvia passport holders is 25. This helps identify destinations where pre-travel documentation may be needed, without replacing embassy, airline or destination-specific checks.

The Latvia mobility score is 173. In the Passport Reports methodology, this score adds visa-free destinations, visa on arrival destinations and eTA destinations to summarize practical travel reach.

Latvia can be compared with other passports by reviewing mobility score, visa-free access, eTA, visa on arrival and visa-required destinations together. This gives a broader view than a single rank alone.

The Latvia profile includes country context such as population 1,888,439 (2025 est.), language Latvian, government type Republic and continent Europe. These facts support the profile without changing the passport score.

Passport rankings can change when destinations update entry rules, introduce eTA systems, remove visa requirements or adjust border procedures. Passport Reports presents structured reference data for planning, not an admission decision.

Latvia travelers should review passport validity, destination entry rules, transit conditions, return ticket expectations, insurance and any digital authorization. The passport index is a planning aid, not legal or immigration advice.
