Passport Rank
107
According to the SovSpot Passport Ranking Index, the Yemeni passport presently ranks 107th. It is regarded as the world's sixth-lowest-ranking passport. Only 34 countries offer visa-free entry to Yemeni passport holders, including Togo, Dominica, Madagascar, and the Seychelles. A Yemeni passport holder is required to obtain a visa for 195 places before traveling. That is why the Passport Ranking ranks so low on the overall global mobility scale. Yemenis must apply for a visa in advance for key locations such as the United States and the European Union. Applicants must show documentation such as evidence of funds and a return airline ticket when applying for a visa.

The number of countries Yemen passport holders can enter without a visa (i.e. visa-free countries) is added to the number of countries Yemen passport holders can enter by obtaining a visa on arrival (i.e. visa-on-arrival countries) or an electronic travel authorization (i.e. visa-on-arrival countries) (eTA). There are now ten Yemen passport visa-free countries, 23 Yemen visa-on-arrival countries, and one eTA destination. Yemen passport holders can travel to a total of 34 countries without needing a visa, a visa on arrival, or an eTA. As a result, the Yemen passport is ranked 107 in the world. In addition to these Yemen visa-free and visa-on-arrival countries, Yemen passport holders must apply for a physical visa or an eVisa to visit 195 other countries (i.e. visa required countries).
