Rwanda パスポート

The Rwandan passport currently offers a travel mobility score that reflects its growing global standing in Africa. As of 2026, the passport ranking is 66th, a significant improvement from its rank of 73 in 2006. Holders of a Rwanda passport can access 67 destinations through a combination of visa-free and visa-on-arrival arrangements. Specifically, the passport provides visa-free entry to 35 countries, including Singapore, Kenya, and Benin, while 27 destinations offer visa-on-arrival, such as Ethiopia and Indonesia. Additionally, several countries like Sri Lanka and Seychelles require an electronic travel authorisation (eTA). Despite this increased access, Rwandan citizens do not have visa-free access to the Schengen Area, and a visa is required for travel to major regions including the United States, Canada, and most of Europe. The country holds an openness score of 45 and a global score of 62. For many other nations, such as India, Türkiye, and the United Arab Emirates, Rwandan travelers must obtain a visa online prior to departure. This data illustrates the steady upward trajectory of Rwandan travel mobility over the past two decades, nearly tripling its visa-free count since 2006.
