Ireland
The Irish passport is currently ranked 6th among global passports, according to the Guide Passport Ranking Index. The Ireland passport ranking is due to the degree of global entry it guarantees to Irish passport holders, who may travel visa-free to 187 countries, but who otherwise need a visa to access 42 countries globally.
National passports are ranked according to how many countries a holder can access visa-free. The Ireland passport ranking therefore reflects the number of visa-free countries accessible to Irish passport holders. Visa-free countries include those where entry is possible without a visa, and with a visa on arrival / electronic travel authorization (eTA).
