Uganda Passport Ranking – Visa Free Access to 67 Countries
The Uganda passport ranks 76th globally in 2025 on the Henley Passport Index, offering visa-free or visa-on-arrival access to 67 destinations worldwide. While its ranking has fluctuated between 58th and 81st place over the past two decades, the passport provides moderate travel mobility for Ugandan citizens, particularly within the East African Community and select African, Asian, and Caribbean nations. Ugandan passport holders benefit from regional integration agreements and expanding diplomatic relations, though they still require visas for many major destinations in Europe, North America, and Asia. The passport remains an essential travel document for Ugandans seeking international business opportunities, education, and tourism across accessible territories.
