The world's most powerful passports for 2021
2021年全球最有優勢的護照
The global gap in travel freedoms has never been wider, says the latest report by London-based global citizenship and residence advisory firm Henley & Partners.
全球公民和居住諮詢公司亨氏顧問公司(Henley & Partners)總部位於倫敦,其釋出的最新報告指出,全球旅行自由差距達有史以來最大。
The firm's Henley Passport Index, based on exclusive data provided by the International Air Transport Association (IATA), has been regularly monitoring the world's most travel-friendly passports since 2006.
該公司的亨氏護照指數是基於國際航空運輸協會(IATA)提供的獨家資料得出的。自2006年起,該指數就一直在監測全球範圍內旅行最友好的護照。
It says that increasing travel barriers that have been introduced over the past 18 months of the Covid pandemic have resulted in the widest global mobility gap in the index's 16-year history.
報告指出,過去一年半的新冠疫情導致旅行障礙逐漸增多,產生了亨氏護照指數發揮監測作用的16年裡最大的旅行自由差距。
The index doesn't take temporary restrictions into account, so leaving actual current travel access aside, holders of the passports at the top of its ranking -- Japan and Singapore -- are able, in theory, to travel visa-free to 192 destinations.
亨氏護照指數不考慮各種暫時的限制,因此,由於不考慮當前的實際旅行許可,位列榜首的護照持有人——持有日本和新加坡護照的人——理論上能夠免籤去往192個目的地旅行。
That's 166 more destinations than Afghan nationals, who sit at the bottom of the index of 199 passports, and can access just 26 countries without requiring a visa in advance.
與阿富汗公民能夠免籤去到的國家相比,上述旅行目的地多出了166個。阿富汗護照持有人位於亨氏護照指數的榜尾,護照數為199個,在不提前申請簽證的情況下只能去往26個國家。

紐西蘭本週宣佈,不再實施新冠肺炎隔離政策,轉而支援疫苗認證系統,與比利時和瑞士並列第六。
The United States and the United Kingdom, which held the top spot together back in 2014, are now more modestly placed in the rankings. They are at No. 7, alongside the Czech Republic, Greece, Malta and Norway, with visa-free or visa-on-demand access to 185 destinations.
