The Antigua and Barbuda passport has reached its strongest position to date, rising three places in the 2026 Henley Passport Index.
The country moved from 27th in 2025 to 24th this year, despite increased global scrutiny of citizenship-by-investment programmes and wider geopolitical pressures.
Passport holders now have visa-free or visa-on-arrival access to about 154 destinations worldwide, according to the index, which measures travel freedom using data from the International Air Transport Association.
The improved ranking places Antigua and Barbuda among the better-performing nations globally and highlights growing international confidence in its passport and border controls.

Within the Caribbean, the country ranks fifth, behind Barbados, The Bahamas, St Vincent and the Grenadines, and St Kitts and Nevis.
The results are seen as a boost to Antigua and Barbuda’s international standing, as it continues to meet global security and travel compliance standards.
