Why Is THIS The World's Strongest Passport? 

He’s finally started to remove Fr*nce from his maps

Not sure why France is missing on the map but i support the message!

This lacks a bit of information about nuances imo. 1. Some EU countries do not even require a passport to enter countries outside Europe, like Dominica, Egypt or Tunisia, the ID card is enough. This technically makes those passports stronger, since you might not need to renew a passport, saving you more money. 2. The length of stay and the rules might vary for different countries (e.g. driving offenses can bar US citizens from entering Canada, and if you are a German born before 1928 you additional requirements for travel to Israel), which affects the real power of passports slightly. 3. All those rankings are purely for touristic travel, they do not give any value to freedom of movement (which does not only include travel, but also the right to settle in a country), or not requiring work permits, which is actually a significant difference in power. E.g. ever non-Schengen country, which as a visa for the Schengen area automatically scores 28 points, which are technically more than the 27 points the citizens of the Schengen area have, even though there is a significant difference in power with a huge upside for the Schengen countries. Sorry for being quite European centric with this, but that's what I know. :D

Citizenship based on the territory you were born on (jus soli) is actually pretty rare and basically doesn’t exist in an unrestricted form outside of the Americas.

as somebody with a passport in the bottom 20 in the world rankings all I can say, people with good passports are some lucky lucky mother fuckers without even realizing it😂

Kosovo this year went from the 80-something best passport to the 50-something this year

It seems especially ironic that a brit was the first to run across Africa, because the best long distance runners in the world are pretty much all east african

My goat toycat back with a banger

I LOVE these types of videos, plsss make more Toycat

Great balanced and nuanced video as always. Also, didn't expect a toycat/hardest geezer crossover lol

I beg you, please troll us by releasing your own, definitive ranking of passport goodness. 🙏

Yes, I remember that question when I travelled to the USA. "Were you involved in terrorism? Answering yes doesn't necessarily mean you will be denied entry." Imagine a line of people with semilune fingers behind their backs checking the NO box at the embassy.

Wait, so if one of your grandparents were born in Northern Ireland, and you yourself are a British citizen, even if you personally have never stepped foot in Northern Ireland, you can apply for citizenship in Ireland, a completely different country unrelated to either your or your grandparent, and get an EU passport that allows you to work and live in EU Schengen countries without a visa?? I never knew that, that's something new I've learned. I wonder if that would enable you to live and work in Switzerland? 🤔

5:58 "Whichever descendant was living there might not have had it." That's very unclear to begin with, but I hope you're not referring to a grandparent as one's descendant. A grandparent is one's ancestor. You are your grandparents' descendant.

I just realised there isn't France in the background map

great shit

I like the idea of the robust network of America consular services -- and Navy Seals, etc. being able to rescue me.

You are my main toycat channel i watch even though i play minecraft too

Hello Soycat. (Yes that's what I'm hearing and I can't unhear it.)

Love the Buc-ee's shirt!

A passport is a bill of lading

Bro’s enjoyed Papers Please. Lovely video.

ayy we out here

6:13 I love how this shows the bottom half of the Republic of China(Taiwan) passport

Love the Baki reference at 42 seconds.

The cost to entry USA as a European is so high its such a joke would never want to do this.

just found second channel, I both like minecraft and these types of videos so it's perfect

12:18 As a French guy, I agree

The strongest passport is the lack of a passport lol

UAE being ranked so high is a joke. No visa free access to USA so - almost an entire continent missing and still ranked number 1

Sorry to correct you but CANADIANS DO need to pay to visit the US when crossing by Air or sea. However if it is a land crossing I do believe that fee is waived although it's been years since I've done a land crossing. The reason they charge you that fee is for infrastructure and screening. The reason land crossings are waived is most people go for a day trip then return. It would hurt both countries' cross-border economy if a fee were to be imposed.

0:10 Which sign language do you do?

Where do they get all of this money to travel in the first place?

Kurt Kunkle good ending

I have, so I'll keep my feet in my couch thank you very much

So that's how all of those Hong Kongers got their British Passports.

You look like the Chicago Geographer on RU-vid

I'm surprised you didn't mention passport cards, like they aren't booklets like what you imagine a passport is, but a card kind of like a Driver's License or an ID. They are insanely week though, a US one for example only grants you access to Canada, Mexico, and the Bahamas. So I wouldn't say a regular Syrian passport is the weakest, it would be some passport card

One difference between Japan and Germany is China

What does Algerian biometric passport need to become a powerful passport? Does Algeria need to manufacture, make, redesign, develop, and make its passport more secure, enhanced, and advanced to become a powerful? Does Algerian passport need to change its appearance and color to become a powerful. Do security features, technologies, appearance, color, and quality matter to the power and reputation of Algerian passport? Does Algeria need to enhance its system to make its passport a powerful?

The Bhutanese passport

I have USA and Estonian passports, #7 and #8 on the list. That lets me go visa free most places, but not India, China or Russia.

Where is France in the map? 😂

6:20 bro narrowly avoided drama

number of countries is a bad measure of power because those countries aren't the same. There a a dozen countries/passport unions that actially matter and over a hundred that don't matter at all. Maybe sum the GDP's of the countries you're allowed into?

The strongest passport is Singapore. They can go to 193 countries

As an american with a mom from northern ireland i never relized i can get an eu passport lol

Doesn't really explain why it's the most powerful passport, as always the answer is in the comments

Apparently you don't need a passport to enter the UK anymore...

I am indeed not first.

Yes, tax everyone more to the point that small to medium size businesses can not compete.

why do you move around so much?

ayy im first

Haha I am first

-Passport- White Privilege Document

Hmm, I wonder why Algeria doesn't allow visa-free travel from France.
