Holders of this passport can travel visa-free or with a visa upon arrival in 121 countries, with Moldova advancing one position compared to last year.<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">According to data from the <a href=\"https:\/\/cdn.henleyglobal.com\/storage\/app\/media\/HPI\/Henley%20Passport%20Index%202025%20October%20Global%20Ranking.pdf\">Henley Passport Index<\/a>, the Republic of Moldova has improved its international mobility indicators, maintaining a stable level of access for its citizens to countries in Europe, Asia and Latin America.<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Over the past ten years, Moldova has shown a gradual increase. In 2013, the country was ranked 68th, but after the introduction of the liberalized visa regime with the European Union in 2014, it climbed to the 46th place. Since then, its ranking has fluctuated between the 45th and 50th places, reflecting the stability of its foreign policy and the gradual expansion of visa liberalization agreements.<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This year, in the ranking, Moldova is situated between Albania, which is in 47th place, and Venezuela, which is in 49th place. These are also ahead of the Russian Federation, which is in 50th place. Meanwhile, Romania and Ukraine are higher up in the ranking, in 13th and 33rd place, respectively.<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Singapore retains the top spot in the ranking again this year. It is followed by South Korea and Japan. Among the European countries leading the ranking are Germany, Italy, Spain, France and Switzerland.<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Henley Passport Index is used by Governments, expert groups, and investors as an indicator of diplomatic and economic ties.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Moldovan passport has ranked 48th in the updated Henley &amp; Partners passport ranking, reports IPN.
