OECD Countries Passport Rankings 2026

How Do We Rank It?

The OECD Ranking compares only passports from countries included in OECD. The results are re-ranked from 1 within OECD.Global Ranking Methodology: passportreports.com ranks passports by their Mobility Score. The Mobility Score represents the total number of countries that can be entered visa-free, with a visa on arrival, or with an electronic travel authorization. If Mobility Scores are equal, the number of countries accessible without a visa is considered first. If that number is also equal, the number of countries accessible with an electronic travel authorization is considered. If the tie remains, the number of countries accessible with a visa on arrival is considered. If all values are equal, the countries share the same rank. Review the algorithm used in our methodology.

About OECD Countries

The OECD is a policy forum that brings together member countries to compare evidence, share standards and develop practical approaches to economic and social challenges. Its roots go back to the post-war European cooperation system, and the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development came into force in 1961. Today its membership spans Europe, North America, South America and the Asia-Pacific region. This page uses OECD membership as a passport comparison group without creating a separate travel regime.

OECD work covers public governance, trade, taxation, education, innovation, employment, development, environment and many other policy fields. Member countries participate through the Council, committees, reviews and data-driven policy discussions. The organisation does not issue a common passport and does not create a shared visa area. Each passport keeps its own national mobility profile based on separate entry rules and international arrangements.

The OECD ranking view compares only the passports included in this group, while the global view keeps the same passports in the worldwide index. The figures come from the central Passport Reports system and include visa-free destinations, visa on arrival, eTA access and visa-required destinations. The same ranking order and tie-break rules used across the website remain unchanged. When central mobility records are updated, the values on this page update automatically.
