United Arab Emirates Passport Ranking
The U.A.E. passport is currently ranked 12th place on the Guide Passport Index. It provides visa-free access to 182 countries. Emirati passport holders have visa-free and visas on arrival access to countries such as Austria, China, Denmark, Finland, Ireland, Italy, Luxemburg, Netherlands, Portugal, Spain, Switzerland, South Korea, South Africa, and many other prime destinations around the world. That is the reason why the passport ranking is high on the overall worldwide mobility score. The remaining 47 countries for which a U.A.E passport holder requires to obtain a visa prior to entering is therefore expected to further drop.
