How does the Henley Passport Index rank passports?

Global citizenship and residency advisory firm Henley & Partners’ annual index uses exclusive data from the International Air Transport Association (IATA) to rank the world’s 199 passports. It is based on the number of destinations that its holders can access without a visa.
