Coverage

India only, 2006-2026. Henley ranks 199 passports.

Limitations

A commercial index built on IATA Timatic travel-rule data, not a Government of India measure. Rank is relative, so it moves when other passports change even if India's own access does not. Henley supplies no mobility score for India in 2007 or 2009.
