World / Pakistan passport is very bad in the matter of international travel know the condition of Afghanistan too

Pakistan Prime Minister Imran Khan recently described his country as happier than India. However the situation is different. The Pakistani passport has been ranked as the fourth worst passport for international travel for the third year in a row. Local media have given this information on Thursday, citing the Henley Passport Index 2022 report.

According to the report, Pakistani passport holders have visa-free or visa-on-arrival access to only 31 countries around the world. The Henley Passport Index is a ranking of all passports in the world. In this, Pakistan has been placed at 108th position.

As The News International reports, the Henley & Partners firm's "Henley Passport Index" has been regularly monitoring the world's most travel-friendly passports since 2006. "The increase in travel barriers introduced during the COVID-19 pandemic has resulted in a wide global mobility gap across the index's 16-year history," the report said.

The index does not take into account temporary restrictions. In the index, Japan and Singapore have the most passports able to travel visa-free in 192 countries. This is 166 more than Afghan citizens. Let us tell you that Afghanistan is at the bottom of this index, which can reach only 26 countries requiring advance visa. Let us tell you that the countries of the European Union are at the top of the list as always.
