The top-10 most powerful African passports
BUSINESS INSIDER
The importance of countries possessing powerful passports cannot be overstated. Beyond the convenience of travel, these passports unlock doors to economic opportunities, strengthen diplomatic ties, promote cultural exchange, empower citizens, and attract global talent.
As the world becomes more interconnected, Africans are recognizing the potential benefits of investing in the strength of their passports.
Many African nations are on a mission to position themselves as key players in the global arena, contributing to the collective progress of the continent and fostering a brighter future for their citizens.
Since June 2023, all of the African countries that have the 10 most powerful passports now have even more powerful passports. For example, the Seychelles passport is now allowed in 156 countries as opposed to 153 in June last year. Likewise, the Tanzanian passport is now allowed in 73 destinations as opposed to 71 mid-way last year.
Henley and Partners, a firm focused on residence and citizenship by investment, recently released its passport index for Quarter 1 of 2024.
Ranking first was the Seychelles, followed by Mauritius, South Africa, Botswana, Lesotho, Namibia, eSwatini, Kenya, Malawi and Tanzania.
