Passport update

Raleigh, NC

I received my new passport from the Indian embassy in Washington DC. I am delighted that I got the passport in time to apply for the tourist visa to Brazil and the student visa to France. With an Indian passport, travelling is a pain. There are very few countries which provide visa free travel to holders of Indian passport.




The Henley Visa Restrictions Index is a global ranking of countries according to travel freedom their citizens enjoy. Denmark leads the list with 157 countries providing visa free travel to it's citizens. India ranks 75 on the list with only 37 countries providing visa free travel to it's citizens. Afghanistan is at the bottom of the list with 22 countries providing visa free travel to it's citizens.

The complete list can be accessed at Henley Visa Restrictions Index
