Mali パスポート

The Mali passport currently offers a travel mobility score that allows holders to access 53 destinations through visa-free or visa-on-arrival arrangements. According to the latest data for 2026, the Mali passport ranking is 78th globally, reflecting its standing in international access. Malian citizens enjoy visa-free entry to several regional neighbors and international locations, including Benin, Côte d'Ivoire, Senegal, and the Philippines. Additionally, visa-on-arrival options are available in countries such as Bangladesh, Bolivia, and Madagascar, while electronic travel authorizations are used for entry into Morocco and Sri Lanka. Despite these regional strengths in Africa, travel mobility remains limited in other areas, as the passport does not grant visa-free access to the Schengen Area. For many global destinations, including the United States, Canada, and most of Europe, Malian nationals are required to obtain a visa prior to travel. The passport's global score of 51 and openness score of 42 highlight the balance between its extensive regional access within ECOWAS and the formal visa requirements maintained by many non-African nations. This historical ranking data shows a fluctuating but relatively stable level of access over the past two decades.
